Fibronectin-integrin α5 signaling promotes thoracic aortic aneurysm in a mouse model of Marfan syndrome

2022-08-16

Abstract excerpt

<h4>ABSTRACT</h4> <h4>Background</h4> Marfan syndrome, caused by mutations in the gene for the extracellular matrix (ECM) glycoprotein fibrillin-1, leads to thoracic aortic aneurysms (TAAs). Phenotypic modulation of vascular smooth muscle cells (SMCs) and ECM remodeling are characteristics of both non-syndromic and Marfan aneurysms. The ECM protein fibronectin (FN) is elevated in the tunica media of TAAs and amp...
