Laminin-α4 and Integrin-Linked Kinase Mutations Cause Human Cardiomyopathy Via Simultaneous Defects in Cardiomyocytes and Endothelial Cells
Abstract
Background— Extracellular matrix proteins, such as laminins, and endothelial cells are known to influence cardiomyocyte performance; however, the underlying molecular mechanisms remain poorly understood. Methods and Results— We used a forward genetic screen in zebrafish to identify novel genes required for myocardial function and were able to identify the lost-contact (loc) mutant, which encodes a nonsense mutation in the integrin-linked kinase...
