متن کاملImmunosuppressive drug azathioprine reduces aneurysm progression through inhibition of Rac1 and c-Jun-terminal-N-kinase in endothelial cells.
OBJECTIVE In aortic aneurysms the arterial vessel wall is dilated because of destruction of its integrity, which may lead to lethal vessel rupture. Chronic infiltration of inflammatory cells into the vessel wall is fundamental to aneurysm pathology. We aim to limit aneurysm growth by inhibition of inflammation and reducing endothelial cell (EC) activation with immunosuppressive drug azathioprin...
