Plasma levels of cathepsins L, K, and V and risks of abdominal aortic aneurysms: A randomized population-based study

Abstract Background Cathepsin L (CatL), cathepsin K (CatK), and cathepsin V (CatV) are potent elastases implicated in human arterial wall remodeling. Whether plasma levels of these cathepsins are altered in patients with abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAAs) remains unknown. Methods and results Plasma s...
