Tbx1 regulates Vegfr3 and is required for lymphatic vessel development [PDF]
Lymphatic dysfunction causes several human diseases, and tumor lymphangiogenesis is implicated in cancer spreading. TBX1 is the major gene for DiGeorge syndrome, which is associated with multiple congenital anomalies.

Mammalian TBX1 preferentially binds and regulates downstream targets via a tandem T-site repeat.
Haploinsufficiency or mutation of TBX1 is largely responsible for the etiology of physical malformations in individuals with velo-cardio-facial/DiGeorge syndrome (VCFS/DGS/22q11.2 deletion syndrome).

TBX1 Transcription Factor: mechanisms of gene regulation [PDF]
The Tbx1 gene encodes a transcription factor, TBX1, critical for heart development in several species, including humans. The haploinsufficiency of this gene is associated with DiGeorge Syndrome (DGS) named also 22q11.2 Deletion Syndrome (22q11.2DS) which

Rebalancing gene haploinsufficiency in vivo by targeting chromatin
Deficit in transcription factor Tbx1 causes heart defects in humans and mice. Here the authors show that Tbx1 regulates gene expression by recruiting histone methyltransferases that affect chromatin marks, and that a drug inhibiting histone demethylation

The del22q11.2 candidate gene Tbx1 regulates branchiomeric myogenesis [PDF]
Formation and remodeling of the pharyngeal arches play central roles in craniofacial development. TBX1, encoding a T-box-containing transcription factor, is the major candidate gene for del22q11.2 (DiGeorge or velo-cardio-facial) syndrome, characterized by craniofacial defects, thymic hypoplasia, cardiovascular anomalies, velopharyngeal insufficiency ...

The TBX1 gene is haploinsufficient in 22q11.2 deletion syndrome (22q11.2DS), and genetic evidence from human patients and mouse models points to a major role of this gene in the pathogenesis of this syndrome.

NK4 antagonizes Tbx1/10 to promote cardiac versus pharyngeal muscle fate in the ascidian second heart field. [PDF]
The heart and head muscles share common developmental origins and genetic underpinnings in vertebrates, including humans. Parts of the heart and cranio-facial musculature derive from common mesodermal progenitors that express NKX2-5, ISL1, and TBX1. This

A Practical Guide to Chromosome Microarray Interpretation for Paediatricians
ABSTRACT Introduction Chromosome microarray (CMA) is a test commonly ordered by general paediatricians. It has diagnostic yield between 10%–15% in individuals with neurodevelopmental delay, autism and/or multiple congenital abnormalities. CMA identifies copy number variants (CNV) including deletions and duplications, which may be pathogenic, variants ...

Tbx1 regulates oral epithelial adhesion and palatal development [PDF]
Cleft palate, the most frequent congenital craniofacial birth defect, is a multifactorial condition induced by the interaction of genetic and environmental factors. In addition to complete cleft palate, a large number of human cases involve soft palate cleft and submucosal cleft palate.

Chromatin regulators in the TBX1 network confer risk for conotruncal heart defects in 22q11.2DS
Congenital heart disease (CHD) affecting the conotruncal region of the heart, occurs in 40–50% of patients with 22q11.2 deletion syndrome (22q11.2DS). This syndrome is a rare disorder with relative genetic homogeneity that can facilitate identification ...
