Abstract

Gene expression profiling of abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAA) indicates that chronic inflammatory responses, active matrix metalloproteinases, and degradation of the extracellular matrix components are involved in disease development and progression. This study investigates intra- and interpersonal RNA genome-wide expression profiling differences (Illumina HumanHT-12, BeadCHIP expression) of 24 AAA biopsies from 12 patients using a single gene and pathway (GeneOntology, GO enrichment) analysis. Biopsies were collected during open surgical AAA repair and according to prior finite element analysis (FEA) from regions with the highest and lowest wall stress. Single gene analysis revealed a strong heterogeneity of RNA expression parameters within the same and different AAA biopsies. The pathway analysis of all samples showed significant enrichment of genes from three different signaling pathways (integrin signaling pathway: fold change FC 1.63, p = 0.001; cholecystokinin receptor pathway: FC 1.60, p = 0.011; inflammation mediated by chemokine signaling pathway: FC 1.45, p = 0.028). These results indicate heterogeneous gene expression patterns within the AAA vascular wall. Single biopsy investigations do not permit a comprehensive characterization of activated molecular processes in AAA disease.
