2 Figure 1 Elastic fiber abnormalities in cutis laxa. Hart’s elastin stain of a skin biopsy specimen from (a) a patient with ARCL1C/URDS caused by a homozygous mutation in LTBP4, and from (b) a normal control individual. Deep dermal elastic fibers (arrowhead) are diminished and show altered staining in the patient. The elastic fibers in the superficial dermis are missing in the patient but are present in the normal control (arrow). Magnification bars: 20 μm. Reproduced from (Urban et al., 2009).
