Periostin Links Mechanical Strain to Inflammation in Abdominal Aortic Aneurysm

AIMS: Abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAAs) are characterized by chronic inflammation, which contributes to the pathological remodeling of the extracellular matrix. Although mechanical stress has been suggested to promote inflammation in AAA, the molecular mechanism remains uncertain. Periostin is a mat...
