Evaluation of Recurrence Risks For Left-Sided Cardiac Lesions
… with or without bicuspid aortic valve (AS/BAV) and coarctation of the aorta (CoA) occur in families more commonly with each other than with any other congenital heart defect (CHD). Genetic counseling for CHDs is currently based on empiric risk estimates derived from data collected on all …

Investigation into the genetic nature of familial congenital bicuspid aortic valve
Bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) affects approximately 1% of the general population and its etiology remains unknown. Based on literature reports, we hypothesized that congenital BAV (cBAV) was a developmental defect inherited as an autosomal dominant trait with variable penetrance. We evaluated the …

Histopathologische Untersuchungen von Aneurysmen der Aorta ascendens in Abhängigkeit von Aortenklappenvitien
… with bicuspid or tricuspid aortic valve (BAV or TAV), which were contained within the AS and AR group, was conducted. Patients and Methods: From 01/2012 till 12/2015 84 ascending aortic tissue samples were obtained and divided into their convex and concave half during aortic surgery. …

Collagen structure within aneurysm tissue in bicuspid aortic valve patients
… in individuals with bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) disease, as aneurysm formation is 50% more common in these populations. Although the exact cause of aortic aneurysms in BAV patients is still unknown, a growing body of research points to changes in the elastin and collagen composition of the …

Identifying Regional DNA Methylation Patterns in the Human Aorta in Health and Disease
… of a congenital bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) is 0.5 to 1% of the population. The condition arises from the fusion of two aortic valve leaflets and is commonly associated with progressive dilation of the aorta (aortopathy) which can lead to sudden and life-threatening complications …

The evaluation of an organophosphate thermosetting resin for use in a high temperature resistant composite and a study of chemistry of ionomer cements
… Cat2+, log b1 Ca2+ PAA ~ -3.35 with Cd2+, log Bav Cd2+ PAA = -2.30 for ethylene-maleic acid copolymer, with Cat2+, log b1 CA2+ EMA ~ -4.05 with Cd2+, log Bav Cd2+ EMA = -1.95 The log b1 values probably had little precise meaning, although to a first approximation, log b1 Ca2+ PAA > log b1 Ca2+ …

Role of Cell Death Regulatory Genes and Radiation Response in Pancreatic Adenocarcinomas
… Induction of the pro-apoptotic effector gene, bav (bcI-2 family member) by radiation in RII over-expressed pancreatic cancer cells, was found to be a key mechanism involved in radiation sensitivity. Overexpression of PAR-4 sensitized the cells to radiation and this sensitization was linked to …
