Kelly)  \nAbstract. Congenital heart defects (CHD) affect 1 in 100 live births and result from defects in cardiac development. Growth of the early heart tube occurs by the progressive addition of second heart field (SHF) progenitor cells to the cardiac poles. The SHF gives rise to ventricular septal, right ventricular and outflow tract myocardium at the arterial pole, and atrial, including atrial septal myocardium, atthe venous pole. SHF deployment creates the template for subsequent cardiac septation and has been implicated in cardiac looping and in orchestrating outflow tract development with neural crest cells. Genetic or environmental perturbation of SHF deployment thus underlies a spectrum of common forms of CHD affecting conotruncal and septal morphogenesis. Here we review the major properties of SHF cells as well as recent insights into the developmental programs that drive normal cardiac progenitor cell addition and the origins ofCHD.  \nKeywords.

Introduction  \nDefects in the complex process of cardiac morphogenesis underlie congenital heart defects (CHD) that affect 1 in 100 live births [1] . The heart is derived from mesoderm, the central of the three embryonic germ layers, and originates in the anterior region of the early embryo as a tubular structure with venous (inflow) and arterial (outflow) poles. Cardiac progenitor cells located in splanchnic mesoderm, overlying future foregut endoderm, contribute progressively to growth of the heart. These cells, known as the second heart field (SHF), ultimately give rise to ventricular septal, right ventricular and outflow  \n∗ Corresponding author.  \ntract myocardium at the arterial pole, and atrial, including atrial septal myocardium, at the venous pole. Deployment of SHF cells is coincident with looping morphogenesis, an essential conserved process during which the heart tube rotates to the right to correctly position the future regions of the definitive heart. Subsequent steps of heart development involve cardiomyocyte proliferation driving chamber morphogenesis, development of the coronary arteries and cardiac conduction system coordinating the heartbeat, and cardiac septation. During septation the formation of ventricular and atrial septa generates the four chambered heart, and the embryonic outflow tract is divided into th","cbCaihb9BtGOlDx3","https://ap.wps.com/l/cbCaihb9BtGOlDx3","pdf",825568,11,"English","# Introduction\n## Early heart development and the second heart field","[{\"question\":\"What is the second heart field (SHF) and what role does it play in heart development?\",\"answer\":\"The SHF comprises cardiac progenitor cells that progressively add to the heart tube.
