Abstract excerpt
Congenital aortic valve stenosis (AS) progresses as an obstructive narrowing of the aortic orifice due to deregulated extracellular matrix (ECM) production by aortic valve (AV) leaflets and leads to heart failure with no effective therapies. Changes in glycoprotein and proteoglycan distribution are a hallmark of AS, yet valvular carbohydrate content remains virtually uncharacterized at the molecular level. While...
