Fhod3 in zebrafish supports myofibril stability during growth of embryonic skeletal muscle
Abstract Background Actin filament organization in cardiomyocytes critically depends on the formin Fhod3, but a role for Fhod3 in skeletal muscle development has not yet been described. Results We demonstrate here that in zebrafish mutated for one of two fhod3 paralog genes, fhod3a, skeletal muscle of the trunk appears normal through 2 days post ...

Abstract Background The notochord is a midline structure essential for vertebrate embryogenesis, contributing to the development of the nervous system, digestive tract, and vertebral column. In particular, notochord signaling is indispensable for proper patterning and coordinated development of alternating vertebrae and intervertebral discs (IVDs ...

Role of SoxE transcription factors in development and disease
Abstract Sox8, Sox9, and Sox10 arose by multiple rounds of genome duplications from a single SoxE gene in ancestral vertebrates. In this review, we will briefly discuss the molecular structure and function of SoxE transcription factors and their evolutionary origin. We will then discuss their expression, function, and developmental disorders.

Cardiac remodeling and arrhythmia in a mouse model of Depdc5 haploinsufficiency
Abstract Objective Some ion channel genes linked to developmental and epileptic encephalopathy (DEE) are also linked to cardiac arrhythmia, leading to the hypothesis that predisposition to cardiac arrhythmias may contribute to the complex disease presentation of DEE and possibly to the mechanism of sudden unexpected death in epilepsy.
