Description : Bicuspid, or bicommissural, aortic valve (BAV) describes an aortic valve with 2 rather
than 3 leaflets (Cripe et al., 2004). In 1 to 2% of the population a bicuspid aortic
valve is present. Bicuspid aortic valve is frequently an antecedent to aortic valve
stenosis or insufficiency. In extreme cases the blood flow may be so restricted that
the left ventricle fails to grow, resulting in hypoplastic left heart syndrome (241550)
(Garg et al., 2005). The valve calcification often observed in bicuspid aortic valve
is a result of inappropriate activation of osteoblast-specific gene expression. Mutations
in the signaling and transcription regulator NOTCH1 cause a spectrum of developmental
aortic valve anomalies and severe valve calcification in nonsyndromic autosomal dominant
human pedigrees. - Genetic Heterogeneity of Aortic Valve Disease Aortic valve disease-2
