LTBP4 and respiratory failure: Ltbp4−/− mice grew significantly slower than their WT littermates, developed dermal and cardiopulmonary abnormalities and died within 2 weeks after birth, most likely due to respiratory failure caused by extensive pulmonary emphysema similar to that observed in ARCL1C patients (Table 2) (Callewaert et al., 2013; Urban et al., 2009).
