Disruption of pdgfra alters endocardial and myocardial fusion during zebrafish cardiac assembly

Cardiac development in vertebrates is a finely tuned process regulated by a set of conserved signaling pathways. Perturbations of these processes are often associated with congenital cardiac malformations. Platelet-derived growth factor receptor α (PDGFRα) is a highly conserved tyrosine kinase recep...
