Abstract excerpt

We sought to examine the role of genetics in the multifactorial disease, abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA), by studying sequence variation in the BAK1 gene (BAK1) that codes for an apoptotic-promoting protein, as chronic apoptosis activation has been linked to AAA development and progression. BAK1 abdominal aorta cDNA from AAA patients and nondiseased individuals were compared with each other, as well as to the...
