Action of Retinoids on Embryonic and Early Postnatal Testis Development
1 May 1999
Abstract excerpt
The current study investigates the hypothesis that retinoids have a role in embryonic testis development. The action of retinoids on testis development and the expression of retinoic acid receptors (RAR alpha, RAR beta, RAR gamma) were examined.
