[General effects of cytosine arabinoside on the embryo of reptiles]
Abstract
Administered to eggs of Reptilia (Lacerta viridis and Anguis fragilis), cytosine-arabinoside induced numerous embryonic malformations, among which microphthalmia and limb deformities. On the other hand this drug delayed the retrogression of the apical ridge of the limb buds in Anguis fragilis.
