Activation of WNT signaling restores the facial deficits in a zebrafish with defects in cholesterol metabolism
2020-02-14
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Background</h4> Inborn errors of cholesterol metabolism occur as a result of mutations in the cholesterol synthesis pathway (CSP). Although mutations in the CSP cause a multiple congenital anomaly syndrome, craniofacial abnormalities are a hallmark phenotype associated with these disorders. Previous studies have established that mutation of the zebrafish hmgcs1 gene (Vu57 allele), which encodes the first enz...
