Abstract excerpt
Toll-like receptor 4 (TLR4) is a crucial regulator of inflammatory reactions and vascular remodeling. Elevated TLR4 expression has been proved to be correlated with an increased risk of aortic aneurysm (AA). This study aimed to explore the influence of TLR4 gene polymorphisms on TLR4 expression levels and its probable functional significance in AA disease. A total of 294 AA patients and 285 controls were enrolled...
