Abstract
Wilms tumor 1 (WT1) is a transcription factor known to be expressed in the epicardium and required for heart development, but the role of WT1 outside of the epicardium is less clear. In a new paper in Development, Marina Ramiro-Pareta and colleagues generate an inducible, tissue-specific loss-of-function mouse model to investigate the role of WT1 in coronary endothelial cells (ECs). We caught up with first author Marina Ramiro-Pareta and corresponding author Ofelia Martinez-Estrada (Principal Investigator at the Institute of Biomedicine in Barcelona, Spain) to learn more about their research.
