<h4>Aims</h4>Cardiac structural genes have been implicated as causative factors for congenital heart diseases (CHDs). NEXN is an F-actin binding protein and previously identified as a disease gene causing cardiomyopathies. Whether NEXN contributes to CHDs aetiologically remains unknown. Here, we explored the function of NEXN in cardiac development.<h4>Methods and results</h4>First, we determine the role of NEXN in cardiac differentiation using mouse P19cl6 in vitro model; we demonstrated that NE ...[more]
