Higher blood pressure in elderly hypertensive females, with increased arterial stiffness and blood pressure in females with the Fibrillin-1 2/3 genotype

open access: yesBMC Cardiovascular Disorders, 2020
Background Elderly patients have a relatively high cardiovascular risk due to increased arterial stiffness, elevated blood pressure and decreased amounts of elastin in the arteries.

Congenital ectopia lentis : diagnosis and treatment [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Congenital ectopia lentis (EL) is an ocular condition, which typically causes a high grade of refractive errors, mainly myopia and astigmatism. These might be difficult to compensate for, especially in children, who might develop ametropic amblyopia ...

Asprosin‐FABP5 Interaction Modulates Mitochondrial Fatty Acid Oxidation through PPARα Contributing to MASLD Development

open access: yesAdvanced Science, Volume 12, Issue 21, June 5, 2025.
Aided by FABP5, abnormally elevated asprosin in hepatocytes enters the nucleus, targets and inhibits PPARα binding to the CPT1A promoter, thereby suppressing FAO. Circulating asprosin exacerbates insulin resistance, collectively driving MASLD progression.

Fibrillin–integrin interactions in health and disease

open access: yesBiochemical Society Transactions, 2008
Human fibrillin-1 is the major structural protein of extracellular matrix 10–12 nm microfibrils. It has a disulfide-rich modular organization which consists primarily of cbEGF (Ca2+-binding epidermal growth factor-like) domains and TB (transforming growth factor β-binding protein-like) domains.

Histopathology of aortic complications in bicuspid aortic valve versus Marfan syndrome: relevance for therapy? [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Patients with bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) and patients with Marfan syndrome (MFS) are more prone to develop aortic dilation and dissection compared to persons with a tricuspid aortic valve (TAV).

Genome-Wide Identification and Expression Analyses of the Fibrillin Family Genes Suggest Their Involvement in Photoprotection in Cucumber

open access: yesPlants, 2018
Fibrillin (FBN) is a plastid lipid-associated protein found in photosynthetic organisms from cyanobacteria to plants. In this study, 10 CsaFBN genes were identified in genomic DNA sequences of cucumber (Chinese long and Gy14) through database searches ...

Cooperative Mechanism of ADAMTS/ ADAMTSL and Fibrillin-1 in the Marfan Syndrome and Acromelic Dysplasias

open access: yesFrontiers in Genetics, 2021
The term “fibrillinopathies” gathers various diseases with a wide spectrum of clinical features and severity but all share mutations in the fibrillin genes.

Proteomic analysis of the bovine and human ciliary zonule [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
PURPOSE: The zonule of Zinn (ciliary zonule) is a system of fibers that centers the crystalline lens on the optical axis of the eye. Mutations in zonule components underlie syndromic conditions associated with a broad range of ocular pathologies ...

Fiber Type‐Specific Proteomic Alterations in R349P Desminopathy Mice

open access: yesMuscle &Nerve, Volume 71, Issue 6, Page 1113-1121, June 2025.
ABSTRACT Introduction/Aims Desminopathies are a group of rare human myopathies and cardiomyopathies caused by pathogenic variants of the desmin gene. Here, we analyzed the effects of the R349P mutant desmin on the proteomic profiles of individual fiber types of murine skeletal muscle.
