Description générale

Elastin is a key protein of the extracellular matrix (ECM). It is made up of glycoproteins, glycosaminoglycans, collagen and proteoglycans. Elastin is mainly localized in the arteries and lungs.
Elastin is an important extracellular matrix (ECM) protein derived from its precursor tropoelastin. Elastin is highly flexible than collagen.

Application

Elastin mouse lung has been used as an extracellular matrix (ECM) protein for coating of plates.

Actions biochimiques/physiologiques

Elastin delivers elasticity to tissues and organs. In addition, it is also involved in paracrine signaling. Genetic variation in the gene coding for elastin causes Williams-Beuren syndrome, cutis laxa and supravalvular aortic stenosis (SVAS).
Elastin plays a critical role in alveolization in the fetal lung. In vivo radiochemical labelling indicates that mouse or rat lung elastin is synthesized primarily prenatally and during the first two weeks of life. It turns over very slowly, with a half-life estimated at several years.
Elastin plays an important role in the elasticity and resilience of many tissues, such as ligament, tendon and elastic cartilage. It is also involved in the elasticity of large arteries and skin.

Notes préparatoires

Purified under mild extraction conditions to minimize peptide bond cleavage as described by Starcher, et al.

Mechanical forces generated in utero by repetitive breathing-like movements and by fluid distension are critical for normal lung development. A key component of lung development is the differentiation of alveolar type II epithelial cells, the major source of pulmonary surfactant.

The current understanding of mechanisms underlying the formation of metastatic tumors has required multi-parametric methods. The tissue micro-environment in secondary organs is not easily evaluated due to complex interpretation with existing tools. Here, we demonstrate the detection of structural modifications
