Angiotensin II infusion promotes ascending aortic aneurysms: attenuation by CCR2 deficiency in apoE(−/−) mice

AngII (angiotensin II) induces atherosclerosis and AAAs (abdominal aortic aneurysms) through multiple proposed mechanisms, including chemotaxis. Therefore, we determined the effects of whole-body deficiency of the chemokine receptor CCR2 (CC chemokine receptor 2) on these diseases. To meet this obje...
