Downregulation of Filamin a Expression in the Aorta Is Correlated With Aortic Dissection
Filamins (FLNs) are actin cross-linking proteins, and as scaffolding proteins, FLNs are closely associated with the stabilization of the cytoskeleton. Nevertheless, the biological importance of FLNs in aortic dissection (AD) has not been well-elucidated.

Heart transplantation in a patient with complex heart lung disease: a case report
Heart disease is often accompanied by lung disease as they share the same risk factors. Heart or lung transplantation is regarded as a definitive treatment for the end-stage disease of each, while the expected median survival for lung transplantation is ...

Totally endoscopic non-robotic excision of aortic valve fibroelastoma: a case report
Background Papillary fibroelastomas (PFEs) are a rare subtype of benign primary cardiac tumours, which are most commonly found on the aortic valve. Although median sternotomy is still used frequently there has been different attempts to remove the aortic

BRD4770 functions as a novel ferroptosis inhibitor to protect against aortic dissection
Smooth muscle cell (SMC) loss is the characteristic feature in the pathogenesis of aortic dissection (AD), and ferroptosis is a novel iron-dependent regulated cell death driven by the excessive lipid peroxidation accumulation.
