Regulation of fibrillin-1 gene expression by Sp1

Gene, 2013
Mutations in the fibrillin-1 gene (FBN1) cause Marfan Syndrome (MFS), a hereditary disorder of connective tissue. The transcription of FBN1 has been reported to be driven by a short ultraconserved region (SUPR) in the 5' untranslated exon A of FBN1, but the nature of other factors involved in FBN1 gene regulation has not been clarified.

Fibrillin-1 im Bindegewebe

2017
Bindegewebe bezeichnet verschiedene Gewebetypen im Korper, die auf unterstutzende Aufgaben spezialisiert sind. Diese Gewebetypen enthalten relativ wenige Korperzellen sowie das biologische Material zwischen den Zellen, die so genannte extrazellulare Matrix.

PARTIAL CLONING AND SEQUENCING OF CHICK FIBRILLIN-1 cDNA

In Vitro Cellular & Developmental Biology - Animal, 2000
The recent identification of numerous matrix genes and gene products has allowed a detailed examination of their roles in development. Two of these extracellular matrix proteins, fibrillin-1 and fibrillin-2, are components of the elastin-associated microfibrils.

Immobilisation of a fibrillin-1 fragment enhances the biocompatibility of PTFE

Colloids and Surfaces B: Biointerfaces, 2014
Current vascular biomaterials exhibit poor biocompatibility characterised by failure to promote endothelialisation, predisposition to neoinitmal hyperplasia and excessive thrombogenicity. Fibrillin-1, a major constituent of microfibrils is associated with elastic fibres in the arterial wall.

Influence of fibrillin-1 genotype on the aortic stiffness in men

Journal of Applied Physiology, 2005
Aortic stiffness is a predictor of cardiovascular mortality. The mechanical properties of the arterial wall depend on the connective tissue framework, with variation in fibrillin-1 and collagen I genes being associated with aortic stiffness and/or pulse pressure elevation.

Fibrillin-1 Protein in Tight Skin Mice and Scleroderma

Clinical Reviews in Allergy & Immunology, 2000
Scleroderma (SSc) is a complex and clinically heterogenous disease of unknown origin, in which both genetic and environmental factors appear to be implicated. In addition to skin, other internal organs, including lung, heart, intestine, and kidney, can be affected.

Relaxin modulates fibrillin-2, but not fibrillin-1, gene expression by human dermal fibroblasts

2001
Fibrillins-1 and -2 are the main constituents of extracellular elastic microfibrils and contribute significantly to tissue integrity and elasticity [1]. Fibrillin-1 (FBN-1) was first discovered from the medium of cultured human dermal fibroblasts [2] and was identified as part of elastic-associated and non-elastic tissue microfibrils [3,4].

Immunohistochemical expression of Fibrillin-1 in idiopathic epiretinal membranes

Graefe's Archive for Clinical and Experimental Ophthalmology
To investigate the expression patterns of Fibrillin-1 in idiopathic epiretinal membranes (iERM) and identify Fibrillin-1-secreting cells.iERM samples were collected via standard 27-gauge vitrectomy and subsequently subjected to flat-mount immunohistochemistry with double staining for the following markers: Fibrillin-1, glial acidic fibrillary protein ...
