Through Oct4 expression is only transiently activated for 2 weeks in 50% aortic SMCs (by day 5 delivery) in progeria mice, but with an amazing long-lasting benefits on SMC vitality, arterial stiffness, progerin, multi-organ ( kidney, spleen, muscle, lung, and skin) senescence transcriptional profile, lifespan w/o apparent dysplasia

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
