Pravastatin activates activator protein 2 alpha to augment the angiotensin II-induced abdominal aortic aneurysms
We have previously reported that activation of AMP-activated kinase alpha 2 (AMPKa2) by nicotine or angiotensin II (AngII) instigates formation of abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA) in Apoe−/− mice. Statins, used to treat hyperlipidemia widely, activate AMPK in vascular cells. We sought to examine the...
