Cardiac function modulates endocardial cell dynamics to shape the cardiac outflow tract

Pragya Sidhwani, Dena M. Leerberg, Giulia L. M. Boezio, Teresa L. Capasso, Hongbo Yang, Neil C. Chi, Beth L. Roman, Didier Y. R. Stainier, Deborah L. Yelon

The paper shows that cardiac function affects endocardial cell dynamics, which in turn shape the cardiac outflow tract in zebrafish.
