Overexpression of DNMT3b target genes during Enteric Nervous System development contribute to the onset of Hirschsprung disease

Abstract Hirschsprung disease (HSCR) is attributed to a failure of neural crest cells (NCCs) to migrate, proliferate, differentiate and/or survive in the bowel wall during embryonic Enteric Nervous System (ENS) development. ENS formation is the result from a specific gene expression pattern regulate...
