Differences in genetic signaling, and not mechanical properties of the wall, are linked to ascending aortic aneurysms in fibulin-4 knockout mice
Fibulin-4 is an extracellular matrix protein that is essential for proper assembly of arterial elastic fibers. Mutations in fibulin-4 cause cutis laxa with thoracic aortic aneurysms (TAAs). Sixty percent of TAAs occur in the ascending aorta (AA). Newborn mice lacking fibulin-4 (Fbln4(−/−)) have aneu...
