| Outline of Final Research Achievements |
The aortic valve which consists of three valve leaflets prevents regurgitant blood flow at the outflow tract of the left ventricle. Bicuspid aortic valve is the most common congenital heart defect, occurring in 0.5% to 2% of the general population, with a higher prevalence in men. Mature aortic valves are stratified into extracellular matrix layers rich in elastin (ventricularis), proteoglycan (spongiosa) and collagen (fibrosa). Formation of the aortic valve is involved in endocardial cells, second heart field derived cells, and neural crest derived cells. In our research, postotic and preotic neural crest cells were shown distinctive patterns in the aortic valve leaflets. And we confirmed that neural crest cells were involved in the development of the ascending aorta.
