About this position

The cardiovascular system - comprising the heart, blood and blood vessels - is the first functional organ system to form during vertebrate development. Cardiac progenitor cells generate the heart, while hematoendothelial progenitors produce blood and vascular endothelium. Although these lineages share an origin in the lateral plate mesoderm, they acquire distinct identities through tightly controlled gene-regulatory programmes. Many transcription factors involved in cardiovascular development are known, but much less is understood about the enhancers that control when and where these genes are
