Calpain‐2‐Mediated Endothelial Focal Adhesion Disruption in Thoracic Aortic Dissection
Advanced Science, EarlyView.The elevated expression of Capn2 in endothelial cells activates focal adhesion signaling by cleaving Talin1 and assembling Itgav, which compromises the integrity of the endothelial barrier and induces vascular inflammation. Inhibition of calpain through both pharmacological and transgenic approaches has effectively suppressed the onset and progression ...

Human Mutation, Volume 43, Issue 12, Page 1824-1828, December 2022., 2022 Abstract Pathogenic variants in JAG1 are known to cause Alagille syndrome (ALGS), a disorder that primarily affects the liver, lung, kidney, and skeleton. Whereas cardiac symptoms are also frequently observed in ALGS, thoracic aortic aneurysms have only been reported sporadically in postmortem autopsies.

Journal of the Royal Society of Medicine, 2003 is often quoted. The clinical diagnosis of botulism is confirmed by injection of the patient’s serum into a laboratory animal, which then shows signs of neurotoxicity. Seven serotypes of the toxin are known, but only types A, B and E have been consistently responsible for botulism in man and trivalent antitoxin directed at these is the treatment of ...

Thoracic Aortic Aneurysm Growth: Role of Sex and Aneurysm Etiology
Journal of the American Heart Association : Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2017 Background Thoracic aortic aneurysm (TAA) outcomes are worse in women than men, although reasons for sex differences are unknown. Because faster TAA growth is a risk factor for acute aortic syndromes, we sought to determine the role of sex and aneurysm ...

Annals of Internal Medicine, 2004 An abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is a serious condition, due to its frequency and high mortality with rupture; however, there is an improved outlook achieved with elective versus emergency repair. The drive is to identify these aneurysms early, so that

International Journal of Endorsing Health Science Research, 2020 Background: Thoracic endovascular aortic repair (TEVAR) is a minimally invasive procedure to repair the major blood vessel in the body i.e. aorta. This minimally invasive approach is considered as a better option in comparison to the open-heart surgery ...

Emerging pharmacological treatments to prevent abdominal aortic aneurysm growth and rupture [PDF]
, 2015 Abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is a local expansion of the abdominal aorta wall caused by a complex multifactorial maladaptive vascular remodeling. Despite recent advances in the management of cardiovascular diseases, there currently is no established ...
