Critical role of Phosphodiesterase 2A in mouse congenital heart defects
Phosphodiesterase 2A, a cAMP-hydrolysing enzyme, is essential for mouse development, however the cause of Pde2A knockout embryonic lethality is unknown. To understand if Pde2A plays a role in cardiac development, hearts of Pde2A deficient embryos were analysed at different stage of development.
