Pulmonary functional abnormalities, such as emphysema and restrictive lung diseases, are frequently observed in patients with MFS. However, the pathogenesis and molecular mechanism of pulmonary involvement in MFS patients are underexplored. Notch signaling is essential for lung development and the airway epithelium regeneration and repair. Therefore, we investigated whether Notch3 signaling plays a role in pulmonary emphysema in MFS. By using a murine model of MFS, fibrillin-1 hypomorphic mgR mice, we found pulmonary emphysematous-appearing alveolar patterns in the lungs of mgR mice. The septation in terminal alveoli of lungs in mgR mice was reduced compared to wild type controls in the early lung development. These changes were associated with increased Notch3 activation. To confirm that the increased Notch3 signaling in mgR mice was responsible for structure alterations in the lungs, mice were treated with <jats:italic>N<\/jats:italic>-[<jats:italic>N<\/jats:italic>-(3,5-difluorophenacetyl)-<jats:sc>l<\/jats:sc>-alanyl]-<jats:italic>S<\/jats:italic>-phenylglucine <jats:italic>t<\/jats:italic>-butyl ester (DAPT), a <jats:inline-formula><jats:alternatives><jats:tex-math>$$\\gamma$$<\/jats:tex-math><mml:math xmlns:mml=\"http:\/\/www.w3.org\/1998\/Math\/MathML\">\n                  <mml:mi>\u03b3<\/mml:mi>\n                <\/mml:math><\/jats:alternatives><\/jats:inline-formula>-secretase inhibitor, which inhibits Notch signaling. DAPT treatment reduced lung cell apoptosis and attenuated pulmonary alteration in mice with MFS. This study indicates that Notch3 signaling contributes to pulmonary emphysema in mgR mice.
