Marfan Syndrome (MFS) is a highly penetrant, autosomal dominant disease of the connective tissues caused by mutations to the Fibrillin-1 (FBN1) gene. MFS associates with excessive activation of the canonical (SMAD) and noncanonical (MAPKs: ERK, p38, JNK) TGFβ signaling cascades. Patients can display symptoms across the ocular, pulmonary, integumentary, skeletal, and, most importantly, cardiovascular systems. The most common cause of morbidity and mortality in MFS patients is aortic root aneurysm with the potential for progression to an aortic dissection. Even within single families harboring identical FBN1 mutations, there can be high variability in disease severity. The purpose of this dissertation work was to identify genetic modifiers of...
