Marfan Syndrome (MFS) and Loeys-Dietz Syndrome (LDS) represent heritable
connective tissue disorders that cosegregate with a similar pattern of
cardiovascular defects (thoracic aortic aneurysm, mitral valve
prolapse/regurgitation, and aortic root dilatation with regurgitation). This
pattern of cardiovascular defects appears to be expressed along a spectrum of
severity in many heritable connective tissue disorders and raises suspicion of a
relationship between the normal development of connective tissues and the
cardiovascular system. Given the evidence of increased transforming growth
factor-beta (TGF-?) signaling in MFS and LDS, this signaling pathway may
represent the common link in this relationship. To further explore this
hypothetical link, this chapter will review the TGF-? signaling pathway,
heritable connective tissue syndromes related to TGF-? receptor (TGFBR)
mutations, and discuss the pathogenic contribution of TGF-? to these syndromes
with a primary focus on the cardiovascular system.
