The FBN1 gene encodes the extracellular matrix protein fibrillin-1, the major structural component of the microfibrils that form the elastic fibers. Mutations in this gene were related to the occurrence of Marfan Syndrome (MFS), an autosomal dominant connective tissue disorder whose clinical manifestations include Dilated Cardiomyopathy (DCM), bone overgrowth and thoracic deformities. Mor…
FBN1 gene encodes the extracellular matrix protein fibrillin-1, the major structural component of the microfibrils that comprise the elastic fibers. Mutations in this gene were related to the occurrence of Marfan Syndrome (MFS), an autossomal dominant connective tissue disorder that causes many clinical manifestations such as bone overgrowth, scoliosis and thoracic deformities.

Marfan Syndrome (MFS) is an autossomal dominant connective tissue disorder that affects about 1 in 5,000 individuals. The main clinical manifestations include aneurysms and aortic rupture, bone overgrowth, scoliosis and thoracic deformities. MFS is caused by mutations in the FBN1 gene encoding the extracellular matrix protein fibrillin-1, the major structural component of the microfibrils…
Caused by mutations in FBN1 (fibrillin-1), Marfan Syndrome (MFS) is an autosomal-dominant connective tissue disorder with prevalence between 1/3000 to 1/5000, in which the cardiovascular, skeletal, and ocular systems are mostly affected. Of these, cardiovascular manifestations, including dilation and dissection of the ascending aorta, calcification of mitral and aortic valves, thoracic ao…
