BAV is associated with regional disruptions in the eNOS pathway, most markedly in the right aortic region. The discrepancy between increased eNOS activity and the absence of increased NO bioavailability in this region provides insight into physiologic mechanisms potentially underlying the asymmetric dilatation pattern observed in BAV.
