Nfatc1 Promotes Interstitial Cell Formation During Cardiac Valve Development in Zebrafish

Abstract excerpt

Rationale: The transcription factor NFATC1 (nuclear factor of activated T-cell 1) has been implicated in cardiac valve formation in humans and mice, but we know little about the underlying mechanisms. To gain mechanistic understanding of cardiac valve formation at single-cell resolution and insights into the role of NFATC1 in this process, we used the zebrafish model as it offers unique attributes for live...
