2004 MAR 15 - (NewsRx.com & NewsRx.net) -- Calcineurin plays multiple roles in cardiovascular development.
According to a study from the United States, "experiments were initiated in avian embryos to determine the embryonic expression of calcineurin protein phosphatase isoforms as well as to identify developmental processes affected by inhibition of calcineurin signal transduction. Chicken calcineurin A alpha (CnAalpha) and calcineurin A beta (CnAbeta) are differentially expressed in the developing cardiovascular system, including primitive heart tube and valve primordia."
"Inhibition of calcineurin signaling by cyclosporin A (CsA) treatment in ovo ...
