Fibulin‐4 and latent‐transforming growth factor beta‐binding protein‐4 interactions with syndecan‐2 and syndecan‐3 are required for elastogenesis

open access: yesThe FASEB Journal, Volume 39, Issue 7, 15 April 2025.
Molecular mechanisms in cell‐associated elastic fiber assembly. Abstract Elastogenesis is a cell surface‐located hierarchical process that requires the core components tropoelastin and fibrillins and several accessory proteins, including fibulin‐4 (FBLN4) and latent TGF‐β binding protein‐4 (LTBP4).

Exposure to potentially teratogenic medications before and during the first trimester of pregnancy compared to women of childbearing age: A retrospective analysis of Swiss claims data (2015–2021)

open access: yesActa Obstetricia et Gynecologica Scandinavica, Volume 104, Issue 4, Page 707-719, April 2025.
In Switzerland, most dispensed medications with teratogenic effect debated or proven were in the group of weak teratogenicity level. Reassuringly, many women discontinue treatment with potential teratogens before pregnancy. Abstract Introduction Exposure to potentially teratogenic medications during pregnancy is underinvestigated in Switzerland.

Targeted disruption of fibulin-4 abolishes elastogenesis and causes perinatal lethality in mice [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Elastic fibers provide tissues with elasticity which is critical to the function of arteries, lungs, skin, and other dynamic organs. Loss of elasticity is a major contributing factor in aging and diseases.

Phosphoinositide Metabolism: Biochemistry, Physiology and Genetic Disorders

open access: yesJournal of Inherited Metabolic Disease, Volume 48, Issue 2, March 2025.
ABSTRACT Phosphatidylinositol, a glycerophospholipid with a myo‐inositol head group, can form seven different phosphoinositides (PItds) by phosphorylation at inositol carbons 3, 4 and/or 5. Over 50 kinases and phosphatases participate in PItd metabolism, creating an interconnected PItd network that allows for precise temporal and spatial regulation of ...

Glycerophospholipids: Roles in Cell Trafficking and Associated Inborn Errors

open access: yesJournal of Inherited Metabolic Disease, Volume 48, Issue 2, March 2025.
ABSTRACT Glycerophospholipids (GPLs) are the main lipid components of cellular membranes. They are implicated in membrane structure, vesicle trafficking, neurotransmission, and cell signalling. GPL molecules are amphiphilic, organized around the three carbons of glycerol. Positions sn‐1 and sn‐2 are each esterified to a fatty acid (FA).

Classic features of primary systemic amyloidosis (AL amyloidosis) leading to diagnosis of plasma cell myeloma [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
The diagnosis of primary systemic amyloidosis, also known as AL (amyloid light-chain) amyloidosis, is often delayed owing to its nonspecific manifestations as well as its rarity.
