The phrase "alterations in the developmental" is correct and usable in written English.
It can be used in contexts discussing changes or modifications in developmental processes, such as in psychology, biology, or education.
Example: "The study focused on the alterations in the developmental stages of children exposed to different learning environments."
Alternatives: "changes in development" or "modifications in the developmental process".
Take Wagner's work in evolutionary genetics, which has been a major contribution to the field of evolutionary-developmental biology (how evolutionary changes are brought about through alterations in the developmental processes that build bodies), which is essential for understanding "evolvability" (the capacity of species to respond to evolutionary pressures).
The mutation produces no alterations in the developmental timing of expression of the globin genes.
This disruption of neuronal activity may lead to alterations in the developmental processes of synapse formation resulting into a less efficient brain with cognitive deficits.
We here consider parallel evolution in a broad sense by assuming that not all characters are involved in the parallel evolution and by not assuming that evolutionary changes are accomplished by similar alterations in the developmental program (contra [ 2, 102]).
In aggregate the data presented herein lend further weight to the hypothesis that osteoporosis arises, at least in part, from alterations in the developmental control pathways in human osteoblasts.
We and others have demonstrated multiple alterations in chromatin structure arising as a consequence of EtOH exposure, but linking these epigenetic changes to alterations in the developmental program, and ultimately to the acquisition of congenital abnormalities, has yet to be achieved [ 2, 3].
The vitamin A status of the mother caused an alteration in the developmental pattern of fetal heart in parameters of tissue weight, DNA, RNA and protein contents and the biosynthesis of DNA and protein from [3H]-thymidine and [3H]-leucine respectively.
These observations suggested that chimerism results in a complex, but possibly subtle, alteration in the developmental program involving multiple stages of differentiation and numerous genes with small effects.
These age-associated alterations in the frequency, developmental potential, and gene expression profile of human HSC are similar to those changes observed in mouse HSC, suggesting that hematopoietic aging is an evolutionarily conserved process.
In this review, we focus specifically on the relationships between alterations in the early life developmental environment and potential impact on the occurrence of NAFLD.
The data herein lend weight to the hypothesis that alterations in developmental pathways drive the initiation and progression of osteoporosis.
