mTOR inhibition prevents angiotensin II–induced aortic rupture and pseudoaneurysm but promotes dissection in Apoe-deficient mice [PDF]
JCI Insight, 2022Aortic dissection and rupture are triggered by decreased vascular wall strength and/or increased mechanical loads. We investigated the role of mTOR signaling in aortopathy using a well-described model of angiotensin II–induced dissection, aneurysm, or ...
