Genetic link between renal birth defects and congenital heart disease

Genetic link between renal birth defects and congenital heart disease

Using forward genetic screen in fetal mice, Gregory Pazour and colleagues describe mutants affecting kidney/urinary tract development. The authors also show that mutants that cause kidney defects overlaps with those leading to congenital heart defects, thus linking renal anomalies and congenital hea...
