Evaluation of Arterial Histopathology and microRNA Expression That Underlie Ultrasonography Findings in Temporal Arteries of Patients with Giant Cell Arteritis
Abstract:The aim of this study was to assess the interrelation between vascular ultrasonography (US) findings, histopathological data, and the expression of selected dysregulated microRNAs (miRNAs) in giant cell arteritis (GCA). The study included data on the clinical parameters, US measurements, and temporal artery biopsies (TABs) of 46 treatment-naïve patients diagnosed with GCA and 22 age-matched non-GCA patient controls. We performed a comprehensive comparative and correlation analysis along with generation of rece… Show more
