Abstract
Heart valves are of vital importance for our moment-to-moment existence, but how they form remains a mystery. In this issue of Cell, Chang et al. reveal a novel role for calcineurin, NFATs, and VEGF in valve formation. Dynamic changes in NFAT/VEGF expression in regional myocardial and endocardial fields and developmental windows orchestrate this complex process.Entities:
