Abstract excerpt
Abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is a life-threatening disease featuring extensive membrane destruction in the vascular wall, which is closely associated with the phenotypic switching of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMC). A thorough understanding of the changes in regulatory factors during the pathogenesis of VSMC phenotypic switching is essential for medical treatments in AAA. NRF2 was deemed to hold a pivotal...
