Cardiac valve disease is a significant cause of ill health and death worldwide,
and valve replacement remains one of the most common cardiac interventions in
high-income economies. Despite major advances in surgical treatment, long-term
therapy remains inadequate because none of the current valve substitutes have the
potential for remodeling, regeneration, and growth of native structures. Valve
development is coordinated by a complex interplay of signaling pathways and
environmental cues that cause disease when perturbed. Cardiac valves develop from
endocardial cushions that become populated by valve precursor mesenchyme formed
by an epithelial-mesenchymal transition (EMT). The mesenchymal precursors,
subsequently, undergo directed growth, characterized by cellular
compartmentalization and layering of a structured extracellular matrix (ECM).
Knowledge gained from research into the development of cardiac valves is driving
exploration into valve biomechanics and tissue engineering directed at creating
novel valve substitutes endowed with native form and function.
