Multiple pkd and piezo gene family members are required for atrioventricular valve formation
Cardiac valves are essential for heart function, and blood flow stimulation is critical for their formation. Here, researchers have identified a set of mechanosensory genes of the pkd and piezo families as key regulators of valve development.
