Marfan Patient iPSC-Derived Endothelial Cells Carrying FBN1 Variants Reveal Endothelial Dysfunction
2026-08-21
Abstract excerpt
Marfan syndrome (MFS) is an inherited connective tissue disorder caused by pathogenic variants in FBN1, encoding fibrillin-1, with life-threatening aortic complications arising in part from endothelial cell (EC) dysfunction. To study this in a human model, we generated hiPSC-derived ECs from three MFS patients (iMFS-ECs). We show that iMFS-ECs recapitulate known disease phenotypes, including impaired alignment in...
