Gene Commonality in Arterial Circuits Throughout the Body
Authors
Abstract
The common genetic underpinnings of thoracic aortic aneurysms and aneurysms and dissections of several other major arterial circuits have been described in the literature. These include thoracic and abdominal aortic aneurysms, thoracic and intracranial aneurysms, thoracic aortic aneurysms, and spontaneous coronary artery dissections. In this study, we provide a unified report of these observations and investigate any genetic commonality between the above four arterial circulations.
