Methods for treating aortic aneurysm disease

Abstract

This present disclosure relates to the use of one or more biomarkers for diagnosis, screening, or monitoring aortic aneurysm disease (e.g., ascending aortic aneurysm, descending thoracic aortic aneurysm, abdominal aortic aneurysm and Marfan syndrome) in a biological sample (e.g., a blood sample) of a subject. Accordingly, this disclosure provides methods and kits for determining the presence of one or more biomarkers for aortic aneurysm disease in a biological sample of a subject; methods for using the presence of such biomarkers to predict or diagnose aortic aneurysm disease in a subject; and methods to select or modify a therapeutic regimen (e.g., a beta-blocker treatment) for a subject based on the use of such biomarkers.
