| Research Abstract |
To clarify the mechanism of the aortic dissection, we investigated the protein and mRNA expression of sodium/calcium ion exchanger and the mechanical properties of the aortic wall of patients with aortic dissection (AD). The aortic wall of AD showed a significantly higher elasticity and decreased elastin fibers than that of normal control. This was associated with apoptosis of medial smoothmuscle cells, but not with the expression of sodium/calcium ion exchanger.
