Outline of Final Research Achievements

① Basic research:MYH11 chosen as a possible gene for aneurysm formation in human being using human aneurysm tissue by genetic analysis. . Proteomics analysis of human aneurysmal tissue revealed MYH11 is a useful biomarker of aneurysm formation and a useful predictor of atherosclerosis in human being.
② Clinical research:We revealed characteristics of patients with acute type A dissection of the aorta, and showed recent progress of surgical outcome of acute type A dissection in Japan. Impact of re-entry at the brachiocephalic artery after surgical repair on its prognosis evaluated. Various improvement of diagnosis tools and surgical technique reported.
