Abstract excerpt
Mutations of NKX2-5 largely contribute to congenital heart diseases (CHDs), especially atrial septal defect (ASD). We identified a novel heterozygous splicing mutation c.335-1G > A in NKX2-5 gene in an ASD family via whole exome sequencing (WES) and linkage analysis. Utilizing the human induced pluripotent stem cell (hiPSC)-derived cardiomyocytes (hiPSC-CMs) as a disease model, we showed that...
