During tissue morphogenesis, an interplay of biochemical pathways and mechanical cues regulates polarized cell behaviors, the balance of which leads to tissues reaching their correct shape and size. A well-studied example of a biochemical regulator is the highly conserved Fat-Dachsous (Ft-Ds) pathway that coordinates planar polarized cell behaviors and growth in epithelial tissues. For instance, in the Drosophila larval wing disc, the Ft-Ds pathway acts via the atypical myosin Dachs to control tissue shape by promoting the orientation of cell divisions primarily in a proximodistal (PD) direction.

The clinical significance of numerous cardiovascular gene variants remains to be determined. CRISPR/Cas9 allows for the introduction and/or correction of a certain variant in induced pluripotent stem cells (iPSCs). The resulting isogenic iPSC lines can be differentiated into cardiomyocytes and used as a platform to assess the pathogenicity of the variant.
