SOX6 is expressed in various cell lineages in the developing mouse heart and contributes to proper valvuloseptal development

open access: yesThe Anatomical Record, EarlyView.
Abstract Cells derived from the endocardium, epicardium, cardiac neural crest, and second heart field play a critical role in the formation of the valvuloseptal structures of the heart. Previous studies have shown that the expression of the transcription factor SOX9 in these cell populations is essential in the regulation of this process.

Editorial on coronary artery fistulae

open access: yesCatheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, 2020
Key Points Over 21 years, 26 coronary artery fistulae were treated percutaneously, and 21 (81%) were successful. There is still much to be learned about the physiology of coronary fistulae. Transcatheter methods have improved over the years and permit a high success rate, but some cases still require a surgical approach.
