Retinoic acid regulates the expression of VEGF-A in chicken heart forming cell culture. Primary heart forming region cells from 3–5 ss chicken embryos were cultured for 3 d in either DMEM or Endo Grow (Endo) media in the presence or absence of added retinoic acid (RA). Relative quantification of VEGF-A mRNA in comparison to VEGF-A mRNA in control cells with no added RA. Standard deviations are indicated by error bars. Differences in comparison to the controls at significance level p < 0.05 are marked by (*); at p < 0.005, by (**).
