Characterization of LTBP2 mutation causing Mitral Valve Prolapse
2024-07-24
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Background</h4> Mitral Valve Prolapse (MVP) is a prevalent valvular disorder linked to considerable morbidity and mortality, affecting approximately 2.4% of the general population. A prior genome association study linked LTBP2 to this trait. We report a knockout mouse with LTBP2 mutation demonstrating valve phenotype as well as a family with a novel mutation causing MVP <h4>Methods</h4> Exome sequencing and se...
