Shear and hydrostatic stress regulate fetal heart valve remodeling through YAP-mediated mechanotransduction
Clinically serious congenital heart valve defects arise from improper growth and remodeling of endocardial cushions into leaflets. Genetic mutations have been extensively studied but explain less than 20% of cases. Mechanical forces generated by beating hearts drive valve development, but how these...
