Teratogenicity and Teratogenic Factors
Teratology is the science that investigates the congenital malformations and their causes Intrauterine exposure to a toxicant particularly in early pregnancy induces embryonic and fetal changes ranging from none up to malformations and stillbirths The teratogenic agents include some viral spirochetal and protozoal infections physical agents as ionizing

Shh signaling in limb bud ectoderm: Potential role in teratogen‐induced postaxial ectrodactyly
A variety of teratogens induce the loss of postaxial forelimb structures when administered during mid-gestation to the mouse. Previous studies demonstrated that teratogen exposure is associated with a reduction in zone of polarizing activity (ZPA ...

The presence of biotin‐binding avidin proteins in fish and their biological significance are poorly characterized. We cataloged fish avidins and demonstrate that they are widely present and evolutionarily conserved. We created avd knockout zebrafish and show that zebavidin is dispensable for development and that resistance of avd knockout embryos in ...
