The Structural Role of Elastic Fibers in the Cornea Investigated Using a Mouse Model for Marfan Syndrome
PURPOSE: The presence of fibrillin-rich elastic fibers in the cornea has been overlooked in recent years. The aim of the current study was to elucidate their functional role using a mouse model for Marfan syndrome, defective in fibrillin-1, the major structural component of the microfibril bundles t...
