GATA-6 regulates semaphorin 3C and is required in cardiac neural crest for cardiovascular morphogenesis
23 Mar 2006
Abstract excerpt
GATA transcription factors play critical roles in restricting cell lineage differentiation during development. Here, we show that conditional inactivation of GATA-6 in VSMCs results in perinatal mortality from a spectrum of cardiovascular defects, including interrupted aortic arch and persistent truncus arteriosus. Inactivation of GATA-6 in neural crest recapitulates these abnormalities, demonstrating a...
