Abstract Fibrillin‐1 mutations cause pathological changes in connective tissue that constitute the complex phenotype of Marfan syndrome. In this study, we used fibrillin‐1 hypomorphic and haploinsufficient mice (Fbn1mgr/mgR and Fbn1+/− mice, respectively) to investigate the impact of fibrillin‐1 deficiency alone or in combination with regular physical activity on tendon tissue morphology and mechanical properties. Morphological and biomechanical analyses revealed that Fbn1mgr/mgR but not Fbn1+/− mice displayed smaller tendons with physical properties that were unremarkable when normalized to tendon size. Fbn1mgR/mgR mice (n = 43) Fbn1+/−mice (n = 27) and wild‐type mice (WT, n = 25) were randomly assigned to either control cage conditions (n = 54) or to a running on a running wheel for 4 weeks (n = 41). Both fibrillin‐1‐deficient mice ran voluntarily on the running wheel in a manner similar to WT mice (3–4 km/24 h). Regular exercise did not mitigate aneurysm progression in Fbn1mgR/mgR mice (P |
