Abstract excerpt
Prader-Willi syndrome (PWS) and Schaaf-Yang syndrome (SYS) share overlapping phenotypic features, but potential cardiac involvement in both conditions remains poorly understood. Here, we investigated cardiac function in Magel2 knockout (KO) mice, a model relevant to PWS and SYS, to assess the impact of Magel2 deficiency on the heart. Echocardiographic analysis of 20-week-old Magel2-KO mice revealed concentric...
