Genetics and functions of the retinoic acid pathway, with special emphasis on the eye.

Human genomics - 3 Dec 2019

Abstract excerpt

Retinoic acid (RA) is a potent morphogen required for embryonic development. RA is formed in a multistep process from vitamin A (retinol); RA acts in a paracrine fashion to shape the developing eye and is essential for normal optic vesicle and anterior segment formation. Perturbation in RA-signaling can result in severe ocular developmental diseases-including microphthalmia, anophthalmia, and coloboma....
