Systematic analysis of gene expression differences between left and right atria in different mouse strains and in human atrial tissue.

<h4>Background</h4>Normal development of the atria requires left-right differentiation during embryonic development. Reduced expression of Pitx2c (paired-like homeodomain transcription factor 2, isoform c), a key regulator of left-right asymmetry, has recently been linked to atrial fibri...
