Nipbl Haploinsufficiency Leads to Delayed Outflow Tract Septation and Aortic Valve Thickening.

Abstract excerpt

Cornelia de Lange Syndrome (CdLS) patients, who frequently carry a mutation in NIPBL, present an increased incidence of outflow tract (OFT)-related congenital heart defects (CHDs). Nipbl+/- mice recapitulate a number of phenotypic traits of CdLS patients, including a small body size and cardiac defects, but no study has specifically focused on the valves. Here, we show that adult Nipbl+/- mice present aortic...
