| Research Abstract |
The purpose of this study is to identify an involvement of epigenetic changes during cleft lip formation by environmental factors such as retinoic acid. We have accomplished making cleft lip by implanting bead that contained retinoic acid into the nasal pit of E3. 5 chick embryo. Using the same model, we have collected RNA from frontonasal mass and maxillary prominence to see the changes how retinoic acid affect histone metyltransferases or demethyltransferase that covalently modify lysine 9 of histone H3. SETDB1 that tri-methylate histone 3 of lysine 9 was significantly downregulated by treatment of retinoic acid.
