Early sarcomere and metabolic defects in a zebrafish pitx2c cardiac arrhythmia model
8 Nov 2019
Abstract excerpt
Atrial fibrillation (AF) is the most common type of cardiac arrhythmia. The major AF susceptibility locus 4q25 establishes long-range interactions with the promoter of PITX2 , a transcription factor gene with critical functions during cardiac development. While many AF-linked loci have been identified in genome-wide association studies, mechanistic understanding into how genetic variants, including those at the...
