  1. 01LabEx vivo tissueEfficacy outcome

    In mouse whole-embryo culture, NAP significantly prevented the ethanol-induced reduction in paired somite number.

    Summary
    Ethanol significantly reduced the number of paired somites in mouse whole-embryo culture; this effect was prevented significantly by 100 pM NAP or by 100 pM P7A-NAP, but not by 100 pM I6A-NAP.
  2. 02LabEx vivo tissueMechanism

    In mouse whole-embryo culture, the structure-activity relation for NAP prevention of ethanol embryotoxicity resembled ethanol antagonism rather than neuroprotection.

    In plain wordsIn lab tests, NAP structure-activity patterns for preventing mouse embryo toxicity resembled ethanol antagonism patterns rather than neuroprotection patterns.

    Summary
    The structure-activity relation for NAP prevention of ethanol embryotoxicity was similar to that for NAP ethanol antagonism and different from that for NAP neuroprotection.
