Neuraminidase 1 Exacerbating Aortic Dissection by Governing a Pro-Inflammatory Program in Macrophages

Inflammation plays an important role in aortic dissection (AD). Macrophages are critically involved in the inflammation after aortic injury. Neuraminidases (NEUs) are a family of enzymes that catalyze the cleavage of terminal sialic acids from glycoproteins or glycolipids, which is emerging as a reg...

This study sought to characterize the role and identify the potential mechanism of NEU1 in pathological aortic degeneration.
