ANIMAL & CELL MODELS
  • Asxl2-/- mice display congenital heart malformations including a thickened compact myocardium in the left ventricle, membranous ventricular septal defects, and dilated cardiomyopathy
  • Asxl2-/- mice are insulin resistant, lipodystrophic, and fail to respond to a high-fat diet
