Variant & Polymorphism
|
| |
Candidate gene
| NOTCH3-HES5 signaling pathway is crucial for the development of pulmonary arterial hypertension |
Marker
Therapy target

System | Type | Disorder | Pubmed |
miscelleaneous | hypertension | | |
inhibition of the expression or effect of NOTCH3 signaling in the adult pulmonary vasculature may be a useful strategy to prevent and treat pulmonary arterial hypertension | cancer | reproductive | ovary | |
expression may be related to chemoresistance and that the Notch3 pathway may represent a novel therapeutic target for advanced stage chemoresistant ovarian cancer | digestive | liver | | |
selective interruption of NOTCH3 may provide an anti-fibrotic strategy in hepatic fibrosis | cancer | angiogenesis | | |
JAG1/NOTCH3 is expected to be a potential target for TNBC neovascularization therapy |

| when Notch2 and Notch3 genes are simultaneously disrupted, mice die in utero at mid-gestation due to severe vascular abnormalities |
