Sox10 haploinsufficiency affects maintenance of progenitor cells in a mouse model of Hirschsprung disease [PDF]
Hirschsprung disease, or congenital megacolon, is characterized by aganglionosis of the terminal bowel, which leads to intestinal obstruction and chronic constipation. Several genes involved in the disease have been identified.

Correction of Hirschsprung-Associated Mutations in Human Induced Pluripotent Stem Cells Via Clustered Regularly Interspaced Short Palindromic Repeats/Cas9, Restores Neural Crest Cell Function [PDF]
ACKGROUND & AIMS: Hirschsprung disease is caused by failure of enteric neural crest cells (ENCCs) to fully colonize the bowel, leading to bowel obstruction and megacolon. Heterozygous mutations in the coding region of the RET gene cause a severe form of
