Deletion of integrin-linked kinase from neural crest cells in mice results in aortic aneurysms and embryonic lethality
SUMMARY Neural crest cells (NCCs) participate in the remodeling of the cardiac outflow tract and pharyngeal arch arteries during cardiovascular development. Integrin-linked kinase (ILK) is a serine/threonine kinase and a major regulator of integrin signaling. It links integrins to the actin cytoskel...
