  • Induced chromosome deletion in a Williams-Beuren syndrome mouse model causes cardiovascular abnormalities.

    Goergen CJ, Li HH, Francke U, Taylor CA. J Vasc Res. 2011; 48 (2): 119-29

    The Williams-Beuren syndrome (WBS) is a genetic disorder caused by a heterozygous ~1.5-Mb deletion. The aim of this study was to determine how the genetic changes in a Wbs mouse model alter Eln expression, blood pressure, vessel structure, and abdominal aortic wall dynamics in vivo.
