A role of Hey2 transcription factor for right ventricle development through regulation of Tbx2‐Mycn pathway during cardiac morphogenesis
1 Jan 2021
Abstract excerpt
A basic helix-loop-helix transcription factor Hey2 is expressed in the ventricular myocardium and endocardium of mouse embryos, and Hey2 null mice die perinatally showing ventricular septal defect, dysplastic tricuspid valve and hypoplastic right ventricle. In order to understand region-specific roles of Hey2 during cardiac morphogenesis, we generated Hey2 conditional knockout (cKO) mice using Mef2c-AHF-Cre,...
