Delta-like ligand-4 mediated Notch signaling controls proliferation of second heart field progenitor cells by regulating Fgf8 expression
1 Jan 2020
Abstract excerpt
The role played by Notch pathway in cardiac progenitor cell biology remains to be elucidated. Delta-like ligand-4 (Dll4), the arterial-specific Notch ligand, is expressed by second heart field (SHF) progenitors at time-points crucial in SHF biology. Dll4-mediated Notch signaling is critically required for maintaining an adequate pool of SHF progenitors, such that Dll4 knockout results in reduction in...
