TLDR
The role of T-box transcription factor, Tbx5, in cardiac development has been examined in the developing mouse and chick heart and correlated this pattern with cardiac defects caused by human TBX5 mutations in Holt-Oram syndrome.

Isl1 Identifies a Cardiac Progenitor Population that Proliferates Prior to Differentiation and Contributes a Majority of Cells to the Heart

TL;DR: Two sets of cardiogenic precursors are defined, one of which expresses and requires Isl1 and the other of which does not, which have implications for the development of specific cardiac lineages, left-right asymmetry, cardiac evolution, and isolation of cardiac progenitor cells.

Human cardiovascular progenitor cells develop from a KDR + embryonic-stem-cell-derived population

TL;DR: Analysis of the development of the cardiovascular lineages in human embryonic stem cell differentiation cultures identifies a human cardiovascular progenitor that defines one of the earliest stages of human cardiac development.

A Murine Model of Holt-Oram Syndrome Defines Roles of the T-Box Transcription Factor Tbx5 in Cardiogenesis and Disease

TL;DR: These studies provide one potential explanation for Holt-Oram syndrome conduction system defects, suggest mechanisms for intrafamilial phenotypic variability, and account for related cardiac malformations caused by other transcription factor mutations.

Notch promotes epithelial-mesenchymal transition during cardiac development and oncogenic transformation

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that Notch activity promotes EMT during both cardiac development and oncogenic transformation via transcriptional induction of the Snail repressor, a potent and evolutionarily conserved mediator of EMT in many tissues and tumor types.

A series of normal stages in the development of the chick embryo

TL;DR: The preparation of a series of normal stages of the chick embryo does not need justification at a time when chick ernbryos are not only widely used in descriptive and experimental embryology but are proving to be increasingly valuable in medical research, as in work on viruses and cancer.

Sonic Hedgehog Mediates the Polarizing Activity of the ZPA

TL;DR: A vertebrate gene related to the Drosophila segment polarity gene hedgehog, which is expressed specifically in the ZPA and in other regions of the embryo, that is capable of polarizing limbs in grafting experiments is isolated.
