P12 Proliferation and Procoagulant Activity of Vascular Smooth Muscle Cells from Thoracic and Abdominal Aortic Aneurysms

In contrast to abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA), aneurysms of the thoracic ascending aorta (TAA) are not associated with a mural thrombus. Mechanistic understanding of the involvement of vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) in thrombus formation is lacking. We aim to determine (i) whether thrombin ge...
