Avian troponin C expression patterns extend developmental models; leaves open any clinical relevance to human cardiogenesis.
Naoji Toyota (1993) studied this question. Cardiac/slow skeletal troponin C (C/STnC) mRNA is expressed in the embryonic heart and adult breast muscle, while fast skeletal troponin C (FTnC) mRNA is expressed stage-specifically in the truncus arteriosus and somites during chicken development.
