摘要：
We hypothesized that gene expression patterns in peripheral blood cells may correlate with TAA disease status, and carried out a comprehensive gene expression survey on peripheral blood cells obtained from TAA patients and normal individuals. A distinct gene expression profile in peripheral blood cells can classify TAA patients from normal individuals. The genes provided by the present teachings define a set of diagnostic markers, thus providing a blood-based gene expression test to facilitate early detection of TAA disease. Methods of distinguishing ascending from descending TAA are also provided, as are methods of distinguishing familial from sporadic TAA.
