Abstract excerpt
Intracranial aneurysms (IAs) represent a major clinical concern due to their risk of rupture and the resulting morbidity and mortality. Both environmental and genetic factors contribute to IA susceptibility, yet the genetic causes of IA remain poorly understood. We previously identified several single nucleotide variants (SNVs) in collagen XXII (COL22A1) in affected individuals with IA. However, the functional...
