We found high endothelin-1 and von Willebrand factor plasma titers not only in two individuals (daughter and father) affected with Pseudoxanthoma elasticum but also in a young unaffected relative. These findings raise the possibility that these molecules could be the first biochemical fingerprints of this, still not clinically evident, rare inherited disorder of elastic tissue.

Abstract
We found high endothelin-1 and von Willebrand factor plasma titers not only in two individuals (daughter and father) affected with Pseudoxanthoma elasticum but also in a young unaffected relative. These findings raise the possibility that these molecules could be the first biochemical fingerprints of this, still not clinically evident, rare inherited disorder of elastic tissue.File in questo prodotto:
