Abstract excerpt
Splotch(2H) (Sp(2H)) is a well-recognized mouse model of neural crest cell (NCC) deficiency that develops a spectrum of cardiac outflow tract malformations including common arterial trunk, double outlet right ventricle, ventricular septal defects and pharyngeal arch artery patterning defects, as well as defects in other neural-crest derived organ systems. These defects have been ascribed to reduced NCC in the...
