Congenital heart defects in Down syndrome are caused by increased dosage of DYRK1A
2023-09-19
Abstract excerpt
Down syndrome (DS), trisomy 21, is a gene dosage disorder which results in multiple phenotypes including congenital heart defects (CHD). This clinically important pathology is caused by a third copy of one or more of the ∼230 genes on human chromosome 21 (Hsa21), but the identity of the causative dosage-sensitive genes is unknown and hence pathological mechanisms remain obscure. We show that embryonic hearts from...
