Cardiovascular Defects Associated With Abnormalities in Midline Development in the <i>Loop-tail</i> Mouse Mutant

Abstract excerpt

Loop-tail (Lp) is a naturally occurring mouse mutant that develops severe neural tube defects. In this study, we describe complex cardiovascular defects in Lp homozygotes, which include double-outlet right ventricle, with obligatory perimembranous ventricular septal defects, and double-sided aortic arch, with associated abnormalities in the aortic arch arteries. Outflow tract and aortic arch defects are often...
