"Microfibrils" is a descriptor in the National Library of Medicine's controlled vocabulary thesaurus,
MeSH (Medical Subject Headings). Descriptors are arranged in a hierarchical structure,
which enables searching at various levels of specificity.
Components of the extracellular matrix consisting primarily of fibrillin. They are essential for the integrity of elastic fibers.
