PE cells express microfibril proteins but do not express tropoelastin. Expression of elastic fiber components was determined by Northern analysis for FBCs and PE cells at 2, 4, and 7 d after plating. Both cell types were confluent at ∼4 d. Ten micrograms of total RNA was fractionated on a 1% agarose gel, transferred to a nylon membrane, and probed for tropoelastin (Tropo), three microfibrillar proteins (MAGP, fibrillin-1 [Fib-1], and fibrillin-2 [Fib-2]), and GAPDH.
