Bicuspid aortic valve disease is the most prevalent congenital heart disease, affecting up to 2% of the general population. The presentation of symptoms may vary based on the patient’s anatomy of fusion, with transthoracic echocardiography being the ...

Genome-wide analysis yields new loci associating with aortic valve stenosis
Aortic valve stenosis (AS) is the most common valvular heart disease. Here the authors identify two new AS loci that also associate with bicuspid aortic valve, aortic root diameter and/or coronary artery disease implicating both developmental ...

Bicuspid aortopathy occurs in approximately 50% of patients with bicuspid aortic valve (BAV), the most prevalent congenital cardiac malformation. Although different molecular players and etiological factors (genetic and hemodynamic) have been suggested ...

Increased calcification by erythrophagocytosis in aortic valvular interstitial cells
Abstract Background Calcific aortic valve disease (CAVD) progresses over time to severe aortic stenosis and eventually heart failure. Recent evidence indicates that intraleaflet haemorrhage (ILH) strongly promotes CAVD progression. However, it remains poorly understood how it mechanistically contributes to valvular calcification.

Bicuspid aortic valve, a prevalent congenital malformation, predisposes individuals to severe complications. Although the condition exhibits substantial heritability, known protein-coding and common regulatory mutations explain a minority of cases.

Cyclin‐dependent kinase 13 is indispensable for normal mouse heart development
Congenital heart disease (CHD) is the most common defect in live births. The role of cyclin‐dependent kinase (CDK13) in cardiogenesis and CHD was studied using a transgenic mouse model (Cdk13tm1b) carrying deletion of exons 3 and 4, causing loss of function.

Point on the Aortic Bicuspid Valve
Background—Bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) disease is the most prevalent congenital heart disease in the world. Knowledge about its subtypes origin, development, and evolution is poor despite the frequency and the potential gravity of this condition.

The Evolving Landscape of CHD Genetics: A Contemporary Guide to Genetic Testing and Management
ABSTRACT Congenital heart disease (CHD) is the most common birth defect, affecting an estimated 9.4/1000 infants globally. The genetics of CHD is complex, with most cases thought to have multifactorial aetiology, implicating both genetic and environmental factors.
