NANOSECOND PULSED ELECTRIC FIELD SUPPRESSES DEVELOPMENT OF EYES AND GERM CELLS THROUGH BLOCKING SYNTHESIS OF RETINOIC ACID IN MEDAKA (ORYZIAS LATIPES).

Nanosecond pulsed electric field suppresses development of eyes and germ cells through blocking synthesis of retinoic acid in Medaka (Oryzias latipes).

Application of nanosecond pulsed electric fields (nsPEFs) has attracted rising attention in various scientific fields including medical, pharmacological, and biological sciences, although its effects and molecular mechanisms leading to the effects remain poorly understood.Here, we show that a single, high-intensity (10-30 kV/cm), 60-ns PEF exposure
