Truncated C-terminus of fibrillin-1 induces Marfanoid-progeroid-lipodystrophy (MPL) syndrome in rabbit

open access: yesDisease Models & Mechanisms, 2018
Various clinical differences have been observed between patients with the FBN1 gene mutation and those with the classical Marfan phenotype. Although FBN1 knockout (KO) or dominant-negative mutant mice are widely used as an animal model for Marfan ...

The extracellular matrix glycoprotein fibrillin-1 in health and disease

open access: yesFrontiers in Cell and Developmental Biology
Fibrillin-1 (FBN1) is a large, cysteine-rich, calcium binding extracellular matrix glycoprotein encoded by FBN1 gene. It serves as a structural component of microfibrils and provides force-bearing mechanical support in elastic and nonelastic connective ...

Role and significance of asprosin in feeding behaviour and metabolism

open access: yesКубанский научный медицинский вестник, 2020
This article presents a review of available information on asprosin — a hormone of white adipose tissue discovered in 2016. The history of its discovery, as well as its action mechanisms and main targets are examined.

Infusible Extracellular Matrix Biomaterial Enhances Cell‐Specific Pro‐Repair Responses Following Acute Myocardial Infarction

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
We measure the cell‐specific responses of administering infusible ECM (iECM) in acute myocardial infarction (MI) across multiple timepoints. Using single‐nucleus RNA sequencing and spatial transcriptomics, we measure macrophage activation, fibroblast remodeling, increased vascular development, lymphangiogenesis, cardioprotection, and neurogenesis ...

FBN1 mutations largely contribute to sporadic non-syndromic aortic dissection [PDF]

open access: yesHuman Molecular Genetics, 2017
Mutations in FBN1 have been well identified in syndromic aortic dissection (AD) and familial thoracic aortic aneurysms and dissections. However, whether mutations of FBN1 contribute to sporadic non-syndromic AD and the characteristics of mutations remain unknown. Using next-generation-sequencing technology, FBN1 was sequenced in a total of 702 sporadic

Epigenome editing-mediated restoration of FBN1 expression by demethylation of CpG island shore in porcine fibroblasts

open access: yesBiochemistry and Biophysics Reports
Fibrillin-1, an extracellular matrix protein encoded by the FBN1 gene, is crucial for maintaining connective tissue integrity. Mutations in FBN1 result in haploinsufficiency, leading to Marfan syndrome, in which the expression of functional FBN1 is ...

IL4I1⁺ Macrophages and TDO2⁺ Myofibroblasts Drive AhR‐Mediated Immunosuppression and Ferroptosis Resistance in Solid Predominant Lung Adenocarcinoma

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Solid predominant lung adenocarcinoma exhibits an immune‐excluded, ferroptosis‐resistant niche enriched with IL4I1⁺ TAMs and TDO2⁺ myCAFs. Spatial and multi‐omics analyses reveal AhR‐driven crosstalk that promotes T cell exhaustion and therapy resistance. Blocking AhR with CH‐223191 restores ferroptosis sensitivity, and its combination with ferroptosis

Spatio‐Temporal Proteomic Landscape Reveals Early Warning Signals of Esophageal Squamous Cell Carcinoma Progression

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
This study constructs a proteomic atlas of esophageal squamous cell carcinoma (ESCC) progression using esophageal biopsy samples. It identifies moderate dysplasia as the critical turning stage and a seven‐protein panel for early detection. Functionally, GBP6 loss promotes ESCC progression via cell cycle and epithelial‐mesenchymal transition (EMT ...

A novel FBN1 mutation causes autosomal dominant Marfan syndrome

open access: yesMolecular Medicine Reports, 2017
Marfan syndrome (MFS) is an inherited and systemic disorder. It has been reported that mutations in the fibrillin‑1 gene (FBN1) account for ~90% of autosomal dominant cases of MFS. This study was conducted to screen mutations of FBN1 in a Chinese family with autosomal dominant MFS; four individuals including two patients with MFS were recruited.
