  1. Maternal ethanol administration group (2 g/kg/day, E10–E15) with and without INCB3344 treatment (1 mg/kg/day, i.p.) was compared to Untreated and isocaloric Control groups of embryos at E19. Data are expressed as an averaged ratio (target gene expression/house-keeping gene expression) in each group and presented as mean ± SEM (n = 7/group, *p < 0.05 versus Control, Ethanol + INCB3344, and Control + INCB3344 groups). Difference between groups was analyzed using one-way ANOVA followed by SDS post hoc test
