Identification of candidate genes for congenital ventricular septal defects with HSA22q11 loss of heterozygosity.

Abstract excerpt

INTRODUCTION AND OBJECTIVES: Ventricular septal defect (VSD) is one of the major forms of congenital heart disease (CHD) in individuals with Homo sapiens chromosome 22q11 (HSA22q11) deletion syndrome. The objective was to identify candidate genes associated with VSD located within HSA22q11 by analyzing loss of heterozygosity (LOH) using microsatellite genotyping and by gene dosage analysis in seven candidate...
