Abstract excerpt
Both retinoic acid (RA) and Tbx1 are definitively indispensable for the development of the pharyngeal arches. The defects produced by a loss of Tbx1 highly resemble those induced by hyper- and hypo-RA. Based on these similarities, the effects of RA on Tbx1 expression pattern were explored during pharyngeal arch development in zebrafish. Whole-mount in situ hybridization and real-time quantitative PCR were used....
