Overview
- Disruption tricuspid valvogenesis due to mutation in some genes include:
- A missense mutation in RASA1 that is responsible for the regulation of Ras/ERK cascade.
- A missense mutation in NFATC1 which downregulates the Ras/ERK pathway.
- Familial recurrence of tricuspid atresia is rare.
- Few cases of an autosomal recessive pattern of inheritance are reported.
