Malalties genètiques del teixit conjuntiu: la síndrome de Marfan. IP: Gustavo Egea

Presentació

La síndrome de Marfan és una malaltia genètica del teixit conjuntiu que apareix en 1 de cada 5,000 persones i que a afecta al sistema cardiocirculatori (aorta i cor), respiratori (alvèols pulmonars), esquelètic (músculs i ossos llargs i costelles) i ocular (cristal·lí de l’ull). Aquesta síndrome ve originada per mutacions en el gen que codifica la proteïna fibrilina-1 que és un integrant fonamental de les fibres elàstiques. La manifestació clínica més important i determinant per la vida dels malalts és la aparició de l’aneurisma (dilatació anormal) a l’arrel de l’aorta que amb el temps dona lloc a la dissecció i ruptura de aquest vas. Cal un diagnòstic correcte i a temps, i el seguiment de la progressió de l’aneurisma per intervenir quirúrgicament a temps. Avui en dia hi ha teràpies farmacològiques que ajuden a alentir l’aparició de l’aneurisma però no l’eviten. En el nostre laboratori utilitzem models de ratolins que presenten la malaltia i assagem teràpies alternatives i investiguem processos fisiopatològics que siguin determinants en la formació i progres de la malaltia.
