Abstract
The present invention provides a method for assessing embryotoxicity of a chemical comprising: (1) a first step of measuring the expression level of one or more genes selected from among genes each comprising any of the nucleotide sequences of SEQ ID NOs: 1 to 78 and 101 to 230 and orthologous genes thereof in a sample from a non-human mammal or mammalian cell which has come into contact with a test chemical; and (2) a second step of comparing the measured value of the expression level of the gene in the sample obtained in the first step with a control value of the expression level of the gene and based on the difference assessing the level of the embryotoxicity of the test chemical in the sample; and so on.
