In addition, baicalein was associated with better preservation of medial elastin; the mean grade of elastin degradation in the AAA + BE group (3.0 ± 0.57%, p < 0.001) was approximately half that in Ang II-infused AAA mice (11.75 ± 0.49%) (Figure 1g,h). The gene discussed is AGT; the disease is triple-A syndrome.
