Requirement of the transcription factor GATA4 for heart tube formation and ventral morphogenesis.
Open accessAbstract
The zinc finger transcription factor GATA4 has been implicated in heart development based on its early expression in precardiogenic splanchnic mesoderm and its ability to activate the expression of a number of cardiac-specific genes. To determine the role of GATA4 in embryogenesis, we generated mice homozygous for a GATA4 null allele. Homozygous GATA4 null mice arrested in development between E7.0 and E9.5 because of severe developmental abnormalities. Mutant embryos most notably lacked a primitive heart tube and foregut and developed partially outside the yolk sac. In the mutants, the two bilaterally symmetric promyocardial primordia failed to migrate ventrally but instead remained lateral and generated two independent heart tubes that contained differentiated cardiomyocytes. We show that these deformities resulted from a general loss in lateral to ventral folding throughout the embryo. GATA4 is most highly expressed within the precardiogenic splanchnic mesoderm at the posterior lip of the anterior intestinal portal, corresponding to the region of the embryo that undergoes ventral fusion. We propose that GATA4 is required for the migration or folding morphogenesis of the precardiogenic splanchnic mesodermal cells at the level of the AIP.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
