Even though hypoxia-inducible factor-1α (HIF-1α) is among the transcriptional factors demonstrated to contribute to the formation of abdominal aortic aneurysms (AAAs), the precise mechanism has been unclear. Digoxin is known as an inhibitor of HIF-1α, and shows a protective effect against the progression of AAAs.
