  1. ncbi Targeted disruption of hesr2 results in atrioventricular valve anomalies that lead to heart dysfunction
    Hiroki Kokubo
    Division of Mammalian Development, National Institute of Genetics, Mishima, Japan
    Circ Res 95:540-7. 2004
    ..Because of the unique spectrum of cardiac anomalies expressed by hesr2-null mice, they represent a useful model system for elucidating the genetic basis of heart dysfunction...
  2. ncbi Hesr1 and Hesr2 regulate atrioventricular boundary formation in the developing heart through the repression of Tbx2
    Hiroki Kokubo
    Division of Mammalian Development, National Institute of Genetics, 1111 Yata, Mishima Shizuoka 411 8540, Japan
    Development 134:747-55. 2007
    ..Furthermore, we find that the expression of Hesr1 and Hesr2 is independent of Notch2 signaling. Taken together, our data demonstrate that Hesr1 and Hesr2 play crucial roles in AV boundary formation through the suppression of Tbx2...

    Dev Biol 316:87-99. 2008
    ..This treatment also reduces Hesr1 and Hesr2 expression by as much as 80%. These results support the hypothesis that Hesr1 and Hesr2 are the downstream mediators of the prosensory function of Notch in early cochlear development...
