Hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction: a multifactorial response? [PDF]
hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction (HPV) is an essential mechanism that matches lung perfusion to ventilation to optimize pulmonary gas exchange (for reviews, see Refs. [9][1], [28][2], [31][3]).

Abstract Respiratory acidosis and alkalosis are two of the four main acid‐base processes encountered in clinical practice. These two processes are tightly balanced by breathing. Identification and management of respiratory acid‐base disorders are important for clinicians, particularly when caring for patients with underlying pulmonary and neurological ...

Inhaled carbon monoxide protects time-dependently from loss of hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction in endotoxemic mice [PDF]
Background: Inhaled carbon monoxide (CO) appears to have beneficial effects on endotoxemia-induced impairment of hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction (HPV).

Effects of gestational intermittent hypoxia on maternal, fetal and offspring respiratory system. In black, effects in humans; in red, in vitro effects; in blue, effects in animal models. Summary Obstructive sleep apnea (OSA) is a common sleep disorder that is associated with a wide variety of health conditions, including cardiovascular, cerebrovascular,

BACKGROUND Abnormally high pulmonary artery pressure (PAP) in hypoxia due to exaggerated hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction (HPV) is a key factor for development of high-altitude pulmonary edema (HAPE).

The mortality of critically ill patients rises steadily as the partial pressure of arterial oxygen falls below about 11 kPa (80 mm Hg). A new animal study in the May 2005 issue of PLoS Biology showing a potential benefit for hypoxia is thus a challenge ...

Glutamine Metabolism: Molecular Regulation, Biological Functions, and Diseases
Tumor cells adapt to nutrient‐poor environments by altering metabolism to acquire essential nutrients. They convert glutamine into glutamate and α‐ketoglutarate, supporting mTOR activation and sugar biosynthesis. Disruption of mTORC1 signaling is linked to disease, while glutamine and leucine activation promotes cell growth and inhibits autophagy ...

Cytosolic phospholipase A2 in hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction [PDF]
Cytosolic phospholipase A(2) (cPLA(2)) releases arachidonic acid (AA) from phospholipids in cell membranes. To assess the role of cPLA(2) in hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction (HPV), we measured the increase in left lung pulmonary vascular resistance (LPVR) before and during hypoxia produced by left main stem bronchus occlusion (LMBO) in mice with and ...

Dexfenfluramine and the oestrogen-metabolizing enzyme CYP1B1 in the development of pulmonary arterial hypertension [PDF]
<p>Aims: Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) occurs more frequently in women than men. Oestrogen and the oestrogen-metabolising enzyme cytochrome P450 1B1 (CYP1B1) play a role in the development of PAH.
