| description | CCBE1 is a secreted extracellular matrix protein expressed by epicardial cells but its role during epicardial development was still unknown.Using a Ccbe1 knockout (KO) mouse model, we observed that loss of CCBE1 leads to congenital heart defects including thinner and hyper-trabeculated ventricular myocardium. In addition, Ccbe1 mutant hearts displayed reduced proliferation of cardiomyocyte and epicardial cells. RNA-seq data of CCBE1 KO and WT murine hearts indicated deregulation of genes associated with development and morphogenesis including the epithelial-to-mesenchymal transition. |
