Gene and microRNA expression in <i>p53</i>‐deficient day 8.5 mouse embryos

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: Neural tube defects (NTDs) are one of the most common human birth defects, with a prevalence of approximately 1 in 1000 live births in the United States. In animal studies, deletion of p53 leads to a significant increase in embryos that exhibit exencephaly. Whereas several studies have closely investigated the morphologic changes of p53-deficient embryos, no study has reported the molecular-level...
