Targeting of MMP-13 prevents aortic aneurysm formation in Marfan mice
2022-11-30
Abstract excerpt
Fibrillin-1 assembles into microfibrils that not only define the structural integrity and biomechanics of the aorta but also target and sequester growth factors within the extracellular microenvironment of aortic resident cells. To better understand how dominant negative effects on fibrillin microfibril stability manifest in growth factor driven aortic disease, we analyzed early events of aortic aneurysm formation...
