Recently, a study demonstrated that ferroptosis may be involved in the occurrence of AD by using bioinformatics analysis[56], while our present study confirmed that ferroptosis of SMCs is an important cause of medial degeneration of the aorta and the progression of AD by conducting experiments in HASMCs, mice and specimens of patients with AD
Aging and age-related diseases Aging is a universal, intrinsic, irreversible, heterogeneous and multidimensional process of progressive involution characterized by a gradual loss of physiological functions that increases the probability of death
