Abstract
The frequency of spontaneous embryonic muscular movements was recorded for embryos from mice treated with cortisone or triamcinolone. Movement was significantly reduced in A/J strain mouse embryos exposed to these anti-inflammatory agents. Cleft palates induced by the drugs may originate from failure of the embryonic tongue to be withdrawn from between the palatine shelves.Keywords
