摘要

The latent TGF-beta binding proteins (LTBP-1 -3, and -4) assist in the secretion and localization of latent TGF-beta molecules. Ltbp3(-/-) and Ltbp4S(-/-) mice have distinct phenotypes and only in the lungs does deficiency of either Ltbp-3 or Ltbp-4 cause developmental abnormalities. To determine if these two LTBPs have additional common functions, we generated mice deficient for both Ltbp-3 and Ltbp-4S. The only novel defect in Ltbp3(-/-);Ltbp4S(-/-) mice was an early lethality compared to mice with single mutations. In addition lung abnormalities were exacerbated and the terminal air sac septation defect was more severe in Ltbp3(-/-);Ltbp4S(-/-) mice than in Ltbp4S(-/-) mice. Decreased cellularity of Ltbp3(-/-);Ltbp4S(-/-) lungs was correlated with higher rate of apoptosis in newborn lungs of Ltbp3(-/-);Ltbp4S(-/-) animals compared to WT, Ltbp3(-/-), and Ltbp4S(-/-) mice. No differences in the maturation of the major lung cell types were discerned between the single and double mutant mice. However, the distribution of type 2 cells and myofibroblasts was abnormal, and myofibroblast segregation in some areas might be an indication of early fibrosis. We also observed differences in ECM composition between Ltbp3(-/-);Ltbp4S(-/-) and Ltbp4S(-/-) lungs after birth, reflected in decreased incorporation of fibrillin-1 and -2 in Ltbp3(-/-);Ltbp4S(-/-) matrix. The function of the lungs of Ltbp3(-/-);Ltbp4S(-/-) mice after the first week of life was potentially further compromised by macrophage infiltration, as proteases secreted from macrophages might exacerbate developmental emphysema. Together these data indicate that LTBP-3 and -4 perform partially overlapping functions only in the lungs.
