The chemical chaperone 4-phenylbutyric acid rescues molecular cell defects of <i>COL3A1</i> mutations that cause vascular Ehlers Danlos Syndrome
2024-06-24
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Purpose</h4> Vascular Ehlers Danlos Syndrome (vEDS) is a connective tissue disorder caused by COL3A1 mutations for which there are no treatments due to a limited understanding of underlying mechanisms. We aimed to address this critical knowledge gap, focusing on collagen folding, to establish if targeting protein folding represents a potential therapeutic approach. <h4>Methods</h4> We performed a mechanist...
