Fibrillin-1 Expression Is Decreased in the Diaphragmatic Muscle Connective Tissue of Nitrofen-Induced Congenital Diaphragmatic Hernia

Conclusions Decreased expression of fibrillin-1 during morphogenesis of the fetal diaphragm may disrupt mesenchymal cell proliferation, causing malformed MCT and thus resulting in diaphragmatic defects in the nitrofen-induced CDH model.
