In utero exposure to certain drugs early in pregnancy may adversely affect nephrogenesis. Exposure to drugs later in pregnancy may affect the renin-angiotensin system, which could have an impact on fetal or neonatal renal function. Reduction in nephron number and renal function could have adverse consequences for the child several years later. Data are

Is Bendectin a Teratogen? [PDF]
Obstetric Anesthesia Digest, 1981 We studied the first-trimester exposure to Bendectin for several major categories of birth defects among infants ascertained through the Metropolitan Atlanta Congenital Defects Program from 1968 to 1978. No associations were found between any of these defect categories and Bendectin exposure.

The role of teratogens in neural crest development
Birth Defects Research, 2020The neural crest (NC), discovered by Wilhelm His 150 years ago, gives rise to a multipotent migratory embryonic cell population that generates a remarkably diverse and important array of cell types during the development of the vertebrate embryo.

Reflections on the etiology of structural birth defects: Established teratogens and risk factors.
Birth defects research. Clinical and molecular teratology, 2015BACKGROUND Various experts in clinical teratology have proposed what they consider to be well-established teratogens. With the recent growth in the number of resources and investigations, there has been a notable proliferation of proposed risk factors as

Teratogen update: Iodine deficiency, a community teratogen
Teratology, 1997In the last decade, iodine deficiency disorders (IDD) have become recognized as the most common preventable cause of mental retardation worldwide. Iodine deficiency interferes severely with prenatal and postnatal growth and neurologic development of individuals.

Reproduction can be impaired in animals and man by drugs and various environmental agents. Depending on the time of exposure—from fertilization through the fetal period and eventually during lactation—the consequences can range from embryotoxicity, gross malformations and a large variety of more subtle morphological, biochemical, and functional ...

Cancer chemotherapeutic agents as human teratogens.
Birth defects research. Clinical and molecular teratology, 2012BACKGROUND Cancer is the second leading cause of death among women of reproductive age. Although the coincidence of pregnancy and cancer is rare and treatment may sometimes be safely delayed, the use of chemotherapeutic agents in pregnancy is sometimes ...

Teratology, the study of birth and developmental anomalies, has been a descriptive science based on detection of birth defects by clinical or laboratory methods. Animal test systems commonly employed have shown modest to excellent success in identifying chemical teratogens. With the advent of epigenetic study of the developmental process, prevention of
