Wnt/β-catenin signaling directs the regional expansion of first and second heart field-derived ventricular cardiomyocytes
12 Sept 2013
Abstract excerpt
In mammals, cardiac development proceeds from the formation of the linear heart tube, through complex looping and septation, all the while increasing in mass to provide the oxygen delivery demands of embryonic growth. The developing heart must orchestrate regional differences in cardiomyocyte proliferation to control cardiac morphogenesis. During ventricular wall formation, the compact myocardium proliferates...
