Oncogene-induced cardiac neoplasia shares similar mechanisms with heart regeneration in zebrafish
2020-12-15
Abstract excerpt
The human heart is a poorly regenerative organ and cardiac tumors are extremely rare. The zebrafish heart can restore its damaged myocardium through cardiomyocyte proliferation. Whether this endogenous capacity causes a susceptibility to neoplasia remains unknown. Here, we established a strategy to conditionally express the HRAS G12V oncogene in zebrafish cardiomyocytes. The induction of this transgene in larvae...
