Prevention of bronchial hyperreactivity in a rat model of precapillary pulmonary hypertension [PDF]
Background The development of bronchial hyperreactivity (BHR) subsequent to precapillary pulmonary hypertension (PHT) was prevented by acting on the major signalling pathways (endothelin, nitric oxide, vasoactive intestine peptide (VIP) and prostacyclin)
