MiR‐23b and miR‐199a impair epithelial‐to‐mesenchymal transition during atrioventricular endocardial cushion formation
21 Jul 2015
Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Valve development is a multistep process involving the activation of the cardiac endothelium, epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT) and the progressive alignment and differentiation of distinct mesenchymal cell types. Several pathways such as Notch/delta, Tgf-beta and/or Vegf signaling have been implicated in crucial steps of valvulogenesis. We have previously demonstrated discrete changes in...
