Notch signaling pathway and heart development, congenital heart disease, and myocardial regeneration

This review summarizes the critical role of the Notch signaling pathway in cardiac development, congenital heart disease, and myocardial regeneration. The Notch signaling pathway exerts a profound impact on cardiac health and disease progression by finely regulating the fate determination of cardiac progenitor cells, cardiac morphogenesis, and the proliferation and apoptosis of cardiomyocytes. The article also explores the research progress of the Notch signaling pathway as a potential therapeutic target and looks forward to future research directions.
