Abstract:
Overexpression of active transforming growth-β1 (TGF-β1) in the heart and plasma of apolipoprotein E-deficient mice retarded aortic root atherosclerosis and slowed the development of aortic aneurysmal disease. Plasma TGF-β1 is an antiatherogenic and vasculoprotective cytokine that alters cellularity, lipid accumulation, inflammation, and gene expression in the artery wall.
