Mechanisms of Deficient Cardiac Septation in the Mouse With Trisomy 16

Abstract excerpt

It used to be thought that the atrioventricular septum was predominantly the product of the atrioventricular endocardial cushions. In a previous study, we have shown that multiple developmental primordia are of importance in its formation. With this in mind, we have evaluated cardiac morphogenesis in the mouse with trisomy 16, an animal model with a high incidence of atrioventricular septal defects. Normal and...
