CT of thoracic aortic aneurysms. [PDF]
RadioGraphics, 1990 Aneurysms of the thoracic aorta are most often the result of arteriosclerotic disease. Other causes include degeneration of the medial layer of the aortic wall, either idiopathically or due to genetic disorders such as Marfan syndrome; aortic dissection; trauma; syphilis and other bacterial infection; noninfective aortitis; and congenital anomaly.

Endovascular treatment of thoracic aortic diseases [PDF]
Vojnosanitetski Pregled, 2013 Bacground/Aim. Endovascular treatment of thoracic aortic diseases is an adequate alternative to open surgery. This method was firstly performed in Serbia in 2004, while routine usage started in 2007. Aim of this study was to analyse initial experience

Mitochondrial function in thoracic aortic aneurysms [PDF]
Cardiovascular Research, 2018 Mitochondria contain multiple copies of mitochondrial DNA (mtDNA) that encode ribosomal and transfer RNAs and many essential proteins required for oxidative phosphorylation. Mitochondria are essential for generation of ATP, but also generate reactive oxygen species (ROS) as a by-product of the electron transport chain. Oxidative damage to mitochondrial

MicroRNAs in ascending thoracic aortic aneurysms [PDF]
Bioscience Reports, 2020 AbstractThoracic Aortic Aneurysm (TAA) is characterized by the dilation of the aorta and is fatal if not diagnosed and treated appropriately. The underlying genetic mechanisms have not been completely delineated, so better knowledge of the physiopathology of TAAs is needed to improve detection and therapy.

TGFβ (transforming growth factor-β) blockade induces a human-like disease in a nondissecting mouse model of abdominal aortic aneurysm [PDF]
, 2017 Objective-Current experimental models of abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) do not accurately reproduce the major features of human AAA. We hypothesized that blockade of TGF beta (transforming growth factor-beta) activity-a guardian of vascular integrity ...

Review of the Essential Roles of SMCs in ATAA Biomechanics [PDF]
Advances in Biomechanics and Tissue Regeneration, Elsevier,
pp.95-114, 2019, 2019 Aortic Aneurysms are among the most critical cardiovascular diseases. The present study is focused on Ascending Thoracic Aortic Aneurysms (ATAA). The main causes of ATAA are commonly cardiac malformations like bicuspid aor-tic valve or genetic mutations. Research studies dedicated to ATAA tend more and more to invoke multifactorial eects.

Acute Aortic Syndromes and Thoracic Aortic Aneurysm [PDF]
Mayo Clinic Proceedings, 2009 Acute and chronic aortic diseases have been diagnosed and studied by physicians for centuries. Both the diagnosis and treatment of aortic diseases have been steadily improving over time, largely because of increased physician awareness and improvements in diagnostic modalities.
