Phenotype triggers

  • normal activity of Sphingosine 1-phosphate receptor 1
    in smooth_muscle_cell
    • Direct evidence for S1P receptor signaling in angiogenesis and cardiovascular development comes from the phenotype of genetic-null studies in mice. The s1p1-null embryos die in utero because of defective vascular maturation in which VSMCs/pericytes do not migrate to surround the vessels. [1]
  • normal activity of Vascular endothelial growth factor receptor 1
    in heart
    • Moderate overexpression of VEGF1 from its endogenous locus results in aberrant heart development and lethality at E12.5-14, which shows essential role of regulated signalling during development. [2]
  • normal activity of Sphingosine 1-phosphate receptor 2
    in heart
    • A zebrafish mutation in the mil gene indicates a role of S1P2 receptor in the development of the cardiovascular system. Mutants showed a defective migration of the cardiac muscle progenitor cells from lateral positions to the midline resulting in the development of two hearts. [3]
