a Immunostaining images for PRMT1 in VSMCs of the human artery and mouse aorta. Scale bar: 40 μm. b Boxplots showing the expression of PRMTs in aortic specimens from either healthy donors (n = 10, green) or patients with abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA, n = 49, red) (GSE57691). c Comparison of the expression of PRMT1, Myocardin (MYCD), and contractile genes in aortas from either the young (20–30 s, n = 38, light blue) or the old (60–70 s, n = 63, blue) group of human aortas (GTEx). Statistical significance was determined with two-tailed Student’s t-tests (b) or Mann–Whitney U tests (c). *P < 0.05; **P < 0.01; ***P < 0.001; ****P < 0.0001; n.s. not significant.
