Apoptosis during cardiovascular development.

abstract：:We have previously demonstrated that urokinase-type plasminogen activator (uPA) is highly expressed in the aneurysmal segment of the abdominal aorta (AAA) in apolipoprotein E-deficient (apoE-/-) mice treated with angiotensin II (Ang II). In the present study, we tested the hypothesis that uPA is essential for AAA form...
