Abdominal aortic aneurysm is a multifactorial disease with genetic risk factors and an
immunologic component. Immune cells, including macrophages, neutrophils, mast cells, B …

Abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAAs) are a multifactorial degenerative vascular disorder. One
of the defining features of the pathophysiology of aneurysmal disease is inflammation …

Abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAAs) are local dilations of infrarenal segment of aortas.
Molecular mechanisms underlying the pathogenesis of AAA remain not fully clear. However …

Expansion and rupture of abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA) result in high morbidity and
mortality rates. Like stenotic atherosclerotic lesions, AAA accumulate inflammatory cells, but …

OBJECTIVE: It has been suggested that certain genetic risk factors indicative of an
autoimmune mechanism can be identified in patients with inflammatory aortic aneurysm …

Abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) pathogenesis occurs as a result of the altered
homeostasis of the aortic vessel wall structural proteins. This results in weakening, and …

Background The presence of Chlamydia pneumoniae in the walls of abdominal aortic
aneurysms (AAAs) has been demonstrated recently, but its role in the cause and/or …
