FLASH GENE DNA RNA EXPRESSION PROTEIN DISORDER ANIMAL & CELL MODELS

ANIMAL & CELL MODELS

	Fbln4-deficient mice have tortuous aortae and emphysematous lungs, with severe disruption in elastic tissues (Horiguchi 2009)
	knocked down of fibulin-4 in human foreskin fibroblasts using siRNA leads to impairment of elastic-fibre formation (Chen et al, 2009)
	Knocking down or knocking out fibulin-4 in mice lead to a decrease in tropoelastin expression in the aorta (Chen et al, 2009)
