Common variants at SCN5A-SCN10A and HEY2 are associated with Brugada syndrome, a rare disease with high risk of sudden cardiac death

Connie R. Bezzina, +80 more
- 01 Sep 2013 - 
TL;DR: The association signals at SCN5A-SCN10A demonstrate that genetic polymorphisms modulating cardiac conduction can also influence susceptibility to cardiac arrhythmia and indicate that common genetic variation can have a strong impact on the predisposition to rare diseases.
Journal ArticleDOI

GATA-dependent regulatory switches establish atrioventricular canal specificity during heart development

TL;DR: It is concluded that atrioventricular canal-specific enhancers are platforms integrating cardiac transcription factors, broadly active histone modification enzymes and localized co-factors to drive atriOVentricular Canal-specific gene activity.
Journal ArticleDOI

Target gene analysis by microarrays and chromatin immunoprecipitation identifies HEY proteins as highly redundant bHLH repressors.

TL;DR: The data clearly establish the three HEY bHLH factors as highly redundant transcriptional repressors in vitro and in vivo, which explains the combinatorial action observed in different tissues with overlapping expression.
Book ChapterDOI

Hey bHLH transcription factors.

TL;DR: How expression of Hey proteins affects processes like cell fate decisions and differentiation, e.g., in cardiovascular, skeletal, and neural development or oncogenesis and how this relates to the observed developmental defects and phenotypes observed in various knockout mice is discussed.
Journal ArticleDOI

Mechanisms of epigenetic and cell-type specific regulation of Hey target genes in ES cells and cardiomyocytes.

TL;DR: The objective of this study was to elucidate the regulatory mechanisms by which Hey proteins affect gene expression in a cell type specific manner and to study target gene regulation in cardiomyocytes generated from murine embryonic stem cells (ESC).
