MYLK c.4079G>A, p.(Gly1360Asp) Variant Associated With Hereditary Thoracic Aortic Diseases and Early Onset Aortic Dissection

Annals of Human Genetics, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Aims Thoracic aortic aneurysms and dissections are major causes of sudden cardiovascular death. We aimed to evaluate the clinical significance of the MYLK c.4079G>A, p.(Gly1360Asp) variant in Finnish families with heritable thoracic aortic disease (HTAD) and to assess evidence for a potential founder effect.

MD‐1 Deficiency Mitigates Atherosclerosis by Inhibiting NLRP3 Inflammasome Activation via cGAS‐STING Dependent Pathway in Macrophages

Cell Proliferation, EarlyView.
MD‐1 is induced and activated in macrophages. The activated MD‐1 subsequently promotes the cGAS‐STING‐TBK1‐IRF3 signalling pathway to activate the NLRP3 inflammasome, and subsequently increases pro‐inflammatory macrophage polarisation and decreases plaque stability to accelerate the development of atherosclerosis.
