In this episode of The APS Publications Podcast, Dr. Richa Tambi and Dr. Binte Zehra discuss the recently published research in Physiological Genomics titled "Single-cell reconstruction and mutation enrichment analysis identifies dysregulated cardiomyocyte and endothelial cells in congenital heart disease."
NEW & NOTEWORTHY Congential heart disease (CHD) is one of the most prevalent neonatal congenital anomalies. We present a comprehensive analysis combining genomics and CHD single-cell transcriptome. Our study identifies 90 potential candidate CHD risk genes of which 6 are novel. The risk genes have heterogenous expression suggestive of multiple genes contributing to the phenotypic heterogeneity of CHD. Cardiomyocytes and endocardial cells are identified as major CHD-related cell types.
