Wdpcp, a PCP Protein Required for Ciliogenesis, Regulates Directional Cell Migration and Cell Polarity by Direct Modulation of the Actin Cytoskeleton [PDF]
Planar cell polarity (PCP) regulates cell alignment required for collective cell movement during embryonic development. This requires PCP/PCP effector proteins, some of which also play essential roles in ciliogenesis, highlighting the long-standing ...

Heterotaxy Syndrome and Intestinal Rotation Abnormalities [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Infants with heterotaxy syndrome (HS) have abnormal lateralization of organs along the right-left body axis. Intestinal rotation abnormalities (IRAs) are a potential source of morbidity and mortality. For this study, our objective was to prospectively observe a cohort of infants with HS and determine the

Abstract Background The molecular mechanisms underlying adaptation to physical exertion and racing stress in horses remain incompletely understood. Peripheral blood transcriptomics offers a minimally invasive method to monitor systemic responses to exercise and identify biomarkers of adaptation or overload. Objectives To evaluate transcriptomic changes

TRANSPOSITION OF GREAT ARTERIES: NEW INSIGHTS INTO THE PATHOGENESIS
Transposition of great arteries (TGA) is one of the most common and severe congenital heart diseases (CHD). It is also one of the most mysterious CHD because it has no precedent in phylogenetic and ontogenetic development, it does not represent an ...

From heterotaxy to VACTER-H syndrome: the clinical variability of ZIC3-related disorders [PDF]
BACKGROUND: The ZIC3 gene functions as a transcription factor in early stages of left-right body axis formation. Mutations in ZIC3 gene cause a variety of clinical manifestations including isolated congenital heart disease (CHD), heterotaxy & other ...

Genetics and Genetic Testing in Congenital Heart Disease [PDF]
Congenital heart defects (CHDs) are structural abnormalities of the heart and great vessels that are present from birth. The presence or absence of extra-cardiac anomalies has historically been used to identify patients with possible monogenic ...
