  1. No gene ontology (GO) terms were enriched in the medial layer of internal thoracic arteries (ITAs), and in the media underlying atherosclerotic plaques in internal carotid arteries (ICAs) among downregulated proteins
  2. ATA: ascending thoracic aorta; ITA: internal thoracic artery; ICA: internal carotid artery; T2DM: Type 2 diabetes mellitus
