Thoracic Aortic Aneurysm and Factors Affecting Aortic Dissection [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Personalized Medicine, 2020
This study is aimed at investigating the relationship between inflammation, the number of vasa vasorum, and the presence of lipoprotein (a) [Lp(a)] in the aortic aneurysm wall, as well as the relationships of these pathological processes with the development of aneurysm wall dissection.

Acute type B aortic dissection in the absence of aortic dilatation

open access: yes, 2012
BackgroundIncreasing aortic diameter is thought to be an important risk factor for acute type B aortic dissection (ABAD). However, some patients develop ABAD in the absence of aortic dilatation. In this report, we sought to characterize ABAD patients who

Re‐Purposing Sapropterin (Kuvan) for ACTA2‐Related Multisystemic Smooth Muscle Dysfunction Syndrome: A Translational Mechanistic and First‐In‐Human Therapeutic Report

open access: yesAnnals of Clinical and Translational Neurology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Multisystemic smooth muscle dysfunction syndrome (MSMDS) is an ultra‐rare, ACTA2‐related disorder characterized by severe cerebrovascular disease, aortic aneurysms, and smooth muscle dysfunction. Using molecular dynamics simulations and in silico drug screening, we identified that sapropterin dihydrochloride (Kuvan) is a candidate capable of ...

Phase Separation of TRIM21 Modulates PTPN14 Stability to Drive Flow‐Dependent Endothelial Activation and Atherogenesis

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
Disturbed flow promotes the formation of TRIM21‐rich biomolecular droplets, which concentrate TRIM21 and PTPN14 and facilitate their SPRY‐FERM interaction (illustrated by the TRIM21 D355‐PTPN14 R132 salt bridge). This condensate‐driven proximity enables TRIM21 to catalyze K48‐linked polyubiquitination of PTPN14 at lysine 956, leading to proteasome ...

A narrative review exploring the association between hypothyroidism and thoracic aortic diseases

open access: yesJVS-Vascular Insights
Background: Thoracic aortic aneurysms (TAA) and aortic dissections (AD) are recognized as one of the leading causes of death in developed countries. Although mortality decreases if at-risk individuals are diagnosed early, on thorough screening, many fail

THSD7A Exacerbates Atherosclerosis via Activation of Signaling Axis αvβ3/CEBPD/IL1A

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
THSD7A exerts pro‐inflammatory effects and exacerbates atherosclerosis. Mechanistically, THSD7A regulates endothelial cell inflammation and atherosclerosis by activating the αvβ3/CEBPD/IL1A signaling axis. THSD7A is not only a genetic marker but also a potential therapeutic target for coronary artery disease (CAD).
