  Angiotensin Imbalance in Patients with Arterial Aneurysms
  Author(s): Megan Qian*
  
  Arterial aneurysms are a significant vascular pathology characterized by the abnormal dilation of blood vessels due to the weakening of the arterial wall. These aneurysms can occur in various regions, including the aorta, cerebral arteries, and peripheral vasculature, leading to life-threatening complications such as rupture and dissection. One of the critical physiological pathways implicated in the development and progression of arterial aneurysms is the Renin-Angiotensin System (RAS). Dysregulation of angiotensin, a key component of this system, has been increasingly recognized as a contributing factor in aneurysm pathophysiology... Read More»
