Seno-destructive smooth muscle cells in the ascending aorta of patients with bicuspid aortic valve diseaseResearch in context
Background: Ascending aortic aneurysms constitute an important hazard for individuals with a bicuspid aortic valve (BAV). However, the processes that degrade the aortic wall in BAV disease remain poorly understood. Methods: We undertook in situ analysis of ascending aortas from 68 patients, seeking...
