Northern analysis demonstrates a concentration dependent induction of GCNF mRNA by retinoic acid. A time course shows that the level of GCNF binding is transiently elevated, later downregulated, and not detectable in differentiated cells. We propose that GCNF regulation is an important step during determination of embryonal carcinoma cells.",
