VEGFR3 modulates brain microvessel branching in a mouse model of 22q11.2 deletion syndrome

Abstract excerpt

The loss of a single copy of TBX1 accounts for most of the clinical signs and symptoms of 22q11.2 deletion syndrome, a common genetic disorder that is characterized by multiple congenital anomalies and brain-related clinical problems, some of which likely have vascular origins. Tbx1 mutant mice have brain vascular anomalies, thus making them a useful model to gain insights into the human disease. Here, we found...
