RAGE antagonist peptide mitigates AGE-mediated endothelial hyperpermeability and accumulation of glycoxidation products in human ascending aortas and in a murine model of aortic aneurysm
2021-10-24
Abstract excerpt
<h4>Background</h4> Aortic dissection and aneurysm are the result of altered biomechanical forces associated with structural weakening of the aortic wall caused by genetic or acquired factors. Current guidelines recommend replacement of the ascending aorta when the diameter is >5.5 cm in tricuspid aortic valve patients. Aortopathies are associated with altered wall stress and stiffness as well as endothelial cell...
