LRP2 controls sonic hedgehog-dependent differentiation of cardiac progenitor cells during outflow tract formation
2019-10-11
Abstract excerpt
<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> Conotruncal malformations are a major cause of congenital heart defects in newborn infants. Recently, genetic screens in humans and mouse models have identified mutations in LRP2 as a novel cause of a common arterial trunk, a severe form of outflow tract (OFT) defect. Yet, the underlying mechanism why the morphogen receptor LRP2 is essential for OFT development remained unexplained. Studying LR...
