Tretinoin is a naturally occurring metabolite of retinol in the retinoid class, including natural and synthetic analogues. It is the acid form of vitamin AIt acts on cell growth and differentiation. Its main use is the treatment against acne thanks to its keratolytic and anti-inflammatory properties. Tretinoin is also used in the treatment of acute myeloid leukaemia type 3 (AML 3).
SIDE EFFECTS:
Among the expected effects, side effects may occur. Signs of an allergic reaction include: hives, difficulty breathing, swelling of the face, lips, tongue or throat;
It should be known that tretinoin can make you more sensitive to the sun, so use sunscreen every day, and wear protective clothing outdoors.
Cholesterol and triglycerides should be done before and during treatment because this drug could increase their values
Some patient with leukaemia treated by tretinoin has suffered from The syndrome of retinoic acid which is characterized by fever, dyspnea, acute respiratory distress...
Answer:
The junction between two neurons is called a Synapse.
Answer:
P(purple, short) = 3/16
Explanation:
Purple flowers require genotypes Pp, pP or PP
Short pollen grains require genotype ll
The genotypes are
PPll (1/16), Ppll (1/16), pPll (1/16) for a total of 3/16
B)LIVER has eukaryotic animal cells
At the West African Institute for Trypanosomiasis Research Field Station at Ugbobigha was 21·5 per cent.; this species is believed to be of major economic importance because its presence must prevent the keeping of cattle in large areas of potential grazing.

Trypanosomiasis, both of humans and of livestock, is one of the most important factors restricting economic development in Africa today. The present paper outlines how this disease is limiting agricultural, veterinary and forestry development in the Sudan, Bechuanaland and West Africa.
The present tsetse-fly distribution is reviewed. Glossina palpalis and G. morsitans occur in the south Sudan and G. morsitans in the Ngamiland district of Bechuanaland; G. morsitans, G. palpalis and G. tachinoides are the most important species in West Africa.
These tsetse flies have altered the cattle distribution in all three regions and, in addition to causing widespread disease, have created local overstocking problems in the tsetse-free grazing areas, and have enforced nomadism on breeding herds and economic loss in slaughter cattle along the trade cattle routes in West Africa.
Human trypanosomiasis is not now such an urgent problem and public health measures have led to its control in all three areas.
Increased agricultural development, which can be a successful and economic method of reclaiming land from tsetse flies, must be intensified in all three areas.
Forest conservation policy comes into conflict with tsetse control measures only in West Africa.
Detailed tsetse-fly surveys and research, on which future plans can be firmly based, are now urgently required.
