1 | Immunosuppressive drug azathioprine reduces aneurysm progression through inhibition of Rac1 and c-Jun-terminal-N-kinase in endothelial cells. | Azathioprine | Rac family small GTPase 1 | Mus musculus |
2 | CONCLUSIONS: The immunosuppressive drug Aza has an anti-inflammatory effect and in ECs inhibits Rac1 and c-Jun-terminal-N-kinase activation, which may explain the protective effect of Aza in aneurysm development and, most importantly for clinical implications, aneurysm severity. | Azathioprine | Rac family small GTPase 1 | Mus musculus |
