GWAS-driven Pathway Analyses and Functional Validation Suggest <i>GLIS1</i> as a Susceptibility Gene for Mitral Valve Prolapse
2018-10-02
Abstract excerpt
Nonsyndromic Mitral valve prolapse (MVP) is a common degenerative valvular heart disease with severe health consequences, including arrhythmia, heart failure and sudden death. MVP is characterized by excess extracellular matrix secretion and cellular disorganization which leads to bulky valves that are unable to co-apt properly during ventricular systole. However, the triggering mechanisms of this process are most...
