Tbx1 regulates brain vascularization [PDF]
The transcription factor TBX1 is the major gene involved in 22q11.2 deletion syndrome (22q11.2DS). Using mouse models of these diseases, we have previously shown that TBX1 activates VEGFR3 in endothelial cells (EC), and that this interaction is critical for the development of the lymphatic vasculature.

TBX1, which encodes a T-box transcription factor, is considered a candidate gene for DiGeorge syndrome, velocardiofacial syndrome, and conotruncal anomaly face syndrome.

Tbx1 is a negative modulator of Mef2c [PDF]
The developmental role of the T-box transcription factor Tbx1 is exquisitely dosage-sensitive. In this study, we performed a microarray-based transcriptome analysis of E9.5 embryo tissues across a previously generated Tbx1 mouse allelic series. This analysis identified several genes whose expression was affected by Tbx1 dosage.

DiGeorge syndrome gene tbx1 functions through wnt11r to regulate heart looping and differentiation. [PDF]
DiGeorge syndrome (DGS) is the most common microdeletion syndrome, and is characterized by congenital cardiac, craniofacial and immune system abnormalities. The cardiac defects in DGS patients include conotruncal and ventricular septal defects.

TBX1 is required for inner ear morphogenesis [PDF]
TBX1 is thought to be a critical gene in the pathogenesis of del22q11/DiGeorge syndrome (DGS). Morphological abnormalities of the external ear and hearing impairment (conductive or sensorineural) affect the majority of patients. Here we show that homozygous mutation of the mouse homolog Tbx1 is associated with severe inner ear defects that prevent the ...

Background TBX1 (T-box transcription factor 1) is a major candidate gene that likely contributes to the etiology of velo-cardio-facial syndrome/DiGeorge syndrome (VCFS/DGS).

VEGFR3 modulates brain microvessel branching in a mouse model of 22q11.2 deletion syndrome
This study provides genetic evidence that VEGFR3 regulates vessel branching and filopodia formation in the embryonic mouse brain and is a likely mediator of brain vessel anomalies in Tbx1 mutant mice.

ObjectivesTbx1 mutant mice are a widely used model of 22q11.2 deletion syndrome (22q11.2DS) because they manifest a broad spectrum of physical and behavioral abnormalities that is similar to that found in 22q11.2DS patients.

Reduced dosage of β-catenin provides significant rescue of cardiac outflow tract anomalies in a Tbx1 conditional null mouse model of 22q11.2 deletion syndrome. [PDF]
The 22q11.2 deletion syndrome (22q11.2DS; velo-cardio-facial syndrome; DiGeorge syndrome) is a congenital anomaly disorder in which haploinsufficiency of TBX1, encoding a T-box transcription factor, is the major candidate for cardiac outflow tract (OFT ...

The occipital lateral plate mesoderm is a novel source for vertebrate neck musculature [PDF]
In vertebrates, body musculature originates from somites, whereas head muscles originate from the cranial mesoderm. Neck muscles are located in the transition between these regions.
