Contrast-enhanced tissue processing of fibrillin-rich elastic fibres for 3D visualization by volume scanning electron microscopy [PDF]
, 2021 Elastic fibres constitute an important component of the extracellular matrix and currently are the subject of intensive study in order to elucidate their assembly, function and involvement in cell–matrix interactions and disease.

Elastoma: clinical and histopathological aspects of a rare disease [PDF]
Anais Brasileiros de Dermatologia, 2016 Elastoma is a connective tissue nevus characterized by changes in elastic fibers. It can be congenital or acquired, and is usually diagnosed before puberty. Associated with osteopoikilosis, it is known as Buschke-Ollendorff syndrome.

Pseudoxanthoma elasticum: report of two cases [PDF]
Anais Brasileiros de Dermatologia, 2014 Pseudoxanthoma elasticum is a rare inherited multisystem disorder that is characterized by a pathological mineralization of the elastic connective tissue, which involves predominantly the skin, eyes and cardiovascular system.

Elasticity of tissues involved in accommodation [PDF]
Vision Research, 1991 Uniaxial loading of human lens, zonules, ciliary muscle, and choroid shows a nonlinear relationship between stress and deformation of the specimen, and hysteresis on unloading. Spring constants, at 10% elongation, have been calculated for all specimens and for several combinations. Except for zonules they are significantly correlated with age.

Pseudoxanthoma elasticum and reflectance confocal microscopy: report of two affected young sisters
Journal of Pediatric and Neonatal Individualized Medicine, 2015 Pseudoxanthoma elasticum (PXE) is a rare inherited multisystem disorder that mainly affects skin, eyes and cardiovascular system. The associated clinical signs are due to progressive calcification of elastic fibres and blood vessels, despite normal ...

Signaling pathways in elastic tissues
Cellular Signalling, 2019 For many years elastin was considered as the matrix component structurally required to provide tissue elasticity. However, the expanded knowledge on the regulation of connective tissue homeostasis has revealed that elastic fibers also represent a source of elastokines and are the target of a number of signaling pathways mainly involving the TGF-β/BMP ...
