Decoupling #TGFβ1 with phospho-SMAD2 (S457) & phospho-SMAD3 (S423/425) in ascending #AorticAneurysm with #BicuspidAorticValve or #UnicuspidAorticValve

How about TGFβ2/3?

As a comparison, in #TricuspidAorticValve aorta, diameter and elastin break correlate well with increased TGFβ1 level or p-SMAD2/3 levels
