Gilani S, Persaud TV: Embryonic development in the chick following exposure to ethanol, acetaldehyde and cyanamide. Ann Anat. 1992 Aug;174(4):305-8.
The influence of cyanamide, an inhibitor of aldehyde dehydrogenase, on the embryopathic effects of ethanol and acetaldehyde, was investigated in the chick embryo. Both ethanol and cyanamide significantly increased embryonic mortality, but did not affect embryonic growth, compared to treatment with either ethanol or cyanamide. Acetaldehyde combined with cyanamide increased embryonic mortality and retarded embryonic growth. Cyanamide influence on embryonic development was minimal. The extent of acetaldehyde involvement in ethanol teratogenicity remains unclear from the present findings. |
