Disruption ofpdgfraalters endocardial and myocardial fusion during zebrafish cardiac assembly
1 Jan 2017
Abstract excerpt
Cardiac development in vertebrates is a finely tuned process regulated by a set of conserved signaling pathways. Perturbations of these processes are often associated with congenital cardiac malformations. Platelet-derived growth factor receptor α (PDGFRα) is a highly conserved tyrosine kinase receptor, which is essential for development and organogenesis. Disruption of Pdgfrα function in murine models are...
