Introduction
All-trans retinoic acid (atRA) is the transcriptionally active product of vitamin A and is known to play many roles in regulating embryo development. In the adult retinoid acid has additional signalling roles including spermatozoa maturation.
The compound has been used extensively postnatally in therapeutic treatments, for example in skin disease. As this compound also acts as a developmental signal, it has known teratogenic effects[2][3] following maternal to conceptus transfer.
