Understanding the Context

Peripheral arteries are reported to be dilated in aneurysmal disease relative to controls. These included the brachial and distal external carotid arteries, vessels ... Nature: Nitric oxide mediates aortic disease in mice deficient in the metalloprotease Adamts1 and in a mouse model of Marfan syndrome Nitric oxide mediates aortic disease in mice deficient in the metalloprotease Adamts1 and in a mouse model of Marfan syndrome Medical Xpress on MSN: Blood mutations are tied to deadly aortic aneurysms—and osteoporosis drugs may stop them Aortic aneurysms are characterized by abnormal enlargement of the aorta, the primary artery responsible for carrying blood from the heart. Rupture often leads to sudden death, and currently, no ...
