Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Tetralogy of Fallot (TOF) is a common form of congenital heart disease. The MYH6 gene has important effects on cardiovascular growth and development. METHODS: In 608 subjects, including 315 TOF patients, we investigated the MYH6 gene promoter variants and verified the effect on gene expression by using cellular functional experiments with three cell lines (HEK-293, HL-1, and H9C2 cells) and...
