Abstract excerpt
Thyroid hormone (T3) and retinoic acid (RA) are essential for normal vertebrate development and are known to coregulate several genes. Early development is predominantly retinoic acid sensitive, yet thyroid hormone receptor-alpha (T3R alpha) is expressed along with retinoic acid receptors (RAR)-a...
