Synthetic retinoids induce terata by the same molecular mechanism as that associated with elevated concentrations of their naturally occurring congeners. The evidence for definite retinoid structure-activity relationships and for specific cellular receptors in their biochemical mechanism of action illustrates the threshold basis of retinoid teratogenesis
