reveals an FGF‐independent role for Tbx1 in pharyngeal apparatus morphogenesis [PDF]
Background: The T-box transcription factor Tbx1, is essential for the normal development of multiple organ systems in the embryo. One of the most striking phenotypes in Tbx1-/- embryos is the failure of the caudal pharyngeal pouches to evaginate from the

Tbx1 regulation of myogenic differentiation in the limb and cranial mesoderm [PDF]
The T-box transcription factor Tbx1 has been implicated in DiGeorge syndrome, the most frequent syndrome due to a chromosomal deletion. Gene inactivation of Tbx1 in mice results in craniofacial and branchial arch defects, including myogenic defects in ...

Fgf8 and Tbx1 have been shown to interact in patterning the aortic arch, and both genes are required in formation and growth of the outflow tract of the heart. However, the nature of the interaction of the two genes is unclear.

Screening for Mutations in the TBX1 Gene on Chromosome 22q11.2 in Schizophrenia [PDF]
A higher-than-expected frequency of schizophrenia in patients with 22q11.2 deletion syndrome suggests that chromosome 22q11.2 harbors the responsive genes related to the pathophysiology of schizophrenia.

TBX1 IS REQUIRED IN BRAIN VASCULARIZATION
The developing microvasculature has a key role in the development, maintenance and repair of the brain and several studies have linked perinatal microvascular damage to an increased risk for schizophrenia and other psychotic disorders.

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.

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.

Conditional and constitutive expression of a Tbx1-GFP fusion protein in mice. [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Velo-cardio-facial syndrome/DiGeorge syndrome (VCFS/DGS) is caused by a 1.5-3 Mb microdeletion of chromosome 22q11.2, frequently referred to as 22q11.2 deletion syndrome (22q11DS).
