17 β-estradiol impedes aortic root dilation and rupture in male Marfan mice

2023-05-12

Abstract excerpt

Marfan syndrome causes a hereditary form of thoracic aortic aneurysms with dilation of the aortic root. Human and animal models suggest a worse phenotype for males compared to females with respect to aneurysm size and risk of dissection. In this study we examine the effects of 17 β-estradiol on aortic dilation and rupture in a Marfan mouse model. Marfan male mice were administered 17 β-estradiol and the growth in...
