Acetylation of TBX5 by KAT2B and KAT2A regulates heart and limb development (2017)
Journal Article
Ghosh, T. K., Aparicio-Sánchez, J. J., Buxton, S., Ketley, A., Mohamed, T., Rutland, C. S., …Brook, J. D. (2018). Acetylation of TBX5 by KAT2B and KAT2A regulates heart and limb development. Journal of Molecular and Cellular Cardiology, 114, 185-198. https://doi.org/10.1016/j.yjmcc.2017.11.013

© 2017 Elsevier Ltd TBX5 plays a critical role in heart and forelimb development. Mutations in TBX5 cause Holt-Oram syndrome, an autosomal dominant condition that affects the formation of the heart and upper-limb. Several studies have provided signif...

Multiple species comparison of cardiac troponin T and dystrophin: unravelling the DNA behind dilated cardiomyopathy (2017)
Journal Article
England, J., Loughna, S., & Rutland, C. S. (2017). Multiple species comparison of cardiac troponin T and dystrophin: unravelling the DNA behind dilated cardiomyopathy. Journal of Cardiovascular Development and Disease, 4(3), Article 8. https://doi.org/10.3390/jcdd4030008

Animals have frequently been used as models for human disorders and mutations. Following advances in genetic testing and treatment options, and the decreasing cost of these technologies in the clinic, mutations in both companion and commercial animal...

Effect of altered haemodynamics on the developing mitral valve in chick embryonic heart (2017)
Journal Article
Pang, K. L., Parnall, M., & Loughna, S. (2017). Effect of altered haemodynamics on the developing mitral valve in chick embryonic heart. Journal of Molecular and Cellular Cardiology, 108, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.yjmcc.2017.05.012

Intracardiac haemodynamics is crucial for normal cardiogenesis, with recent evidence showing valvulogenesis is haemodynamically dependent and inextricably linked with shear stress. Although valve anomalies have been associated with genetic mutations,... Read More about Effect of altered haemodynamics on the developing mitral valve in chick embryonic heart.

Tropomyosin 1: multiple roles in the developing heart and in the formation of congenital heart defects (2017)
Journal Article
England, J., Granados-Riveron, J. T., Polo-Parada, L., Kuriakose, D., Moore, C., Brook, J. D., …Loughna, S. (2017). Tropomyosin 1: multiple roles in the developing heart and in the formation of congenital heart defects. Journal of Molecular and Cellular Cardiology, 106, https://doi.org/10.1016/j.yjmcc.2017.03.006

Tropomyosin 1 (TPM1) is an essential sarcomeric component, stabilising the thin filament and facilitating actin's interaction with myosin. A number of sarcomeric proteins, such as alpha myosin heavy chain, play crucial roles in cardiac development. M...
