Congenital heart defects research

This cluster of papers explores the molecular mechanisms underlying cardiac development, regeneration, and congenital heart defects. It covers topics such as cardiomyocyte renewal, cardiac progenitor populations, endothelial cell-lineage analysis, neural crest contributions, epicardial progenitors, Wnt signaling, T-box genes, and the potential of microRNA therapy for cardiac regeneration.
