Effects

The elastin often has an asymmetrical distribution around the subepithelial fibroblast with preference for secretion toward the epithelium.

Elastin has long been thought to play a pivotal role in alveolar septal development by providing the structural framework around which new alveoli develop. An elastinolytic enzyme has been purified from aneurysmal aorta and appears to have different properties from human leukocyte elastase. Elastin is found in the wall of the retinal arteries in or immediately adjacent to the optic disc of adult Macaca mulatta.

Actions

Elastin plays a role in cell adhesion, cell migration, and has the ability to participate in cell signaling. Elastin fibers degenerate immediately after elastase infusion and thus seem to degenerate not due to endogenous proteinases that are produced by the infiltrating cells, but due to the exogenously infused elast enzyme itself.

Bioavailability

Portal fibroblasts synthesize elastin and other components of microfibrils. These may serve structural roles, providing stability to ducts and the vasculature under conditions of increased ductal pressure. VEGF could regulate the bioavailability of the fibrogenic transforming growth factor β in response to injury.
