uPA Deficiency in Bone Marrow-derived Cells Augments Rupture of Angiotensin II-induced Abdominal Aortic Aneurysms

OBJECTIVE: Abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAAs) are associated with fragmentation of extracellular matrix (ECM) during development of aortic dilation and rupture. Therefore, it is important to identify specific protease systems involved in ECM degradation during AAA formation. The present study determi...
