We introduced the interpretation of open "big data" using the STARGEO platform to define robust genomic signatures of congenital heart disease pathology of TOF. Overall, our meta-analysis results indicated increased metabolism, inflammation, and altered gene expression in TOF patients. Estrogen receptor signaling and the role of NFAT in cardiac hypertrophy represent unique pathways upregulated in TOF patients and are potential targets for future pharmacologic treatments.
