Deciphering the role of Shh signaling in axial defects produced by ethanol exposure
23 Feb 2009
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: The phenotype of embryos exposed to ethanol is complex and likely due to multiple alterations in developmental pathways. We have previously demonstrated that Sonic hedgehog signaling (Shh-s) was reduced in both chicken and zebrafish embryos when exposed to ethanol. METHODS: There are many tissues affected by embryonic ethanol exposure, and in this article we explore the development of axial tissues,...
