Pulmonary Artery Pulse Wave Velocity in Idiopathic Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension

open access: yesCanadian Journal of Cardiology, 2013
Idiopathic pulmonary artery (PA) hypertension (IPAH) is associated with severe PA remodelling. Although the resulting increase in pulse wave velocity (PWV) might be of major pathophysiological relevance, little is known about PA-PWV in IPAH. The aim of this study was to characterize PA-PWV and its predictors in patients with IPAH.We studied 26 ...

Computational Modeling Meets 3D Bioprinting: Emerging Synergies in Cardiovascular Disease Modeling

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Emerging advances in three‐dimensional bioprinting and computational modeling are reshaping cardiovascular (CV) research by enabling more realistic, patient‐specific tissue platforms. This review surveys cutting‐edge approaches that merge biomimetic CV constructs with computational simulations to overcome the limitations of traditional models, improve ...

High geographic prevalence of pulmonary artery hypertension: associations with ethnicity, drug use, and altitude

open access: yesPulmonary Circulation, 2020
While estimates of pulmonary arterial hypertension incidence and prevalence commonly range from 1–3/million and 15–25/million, respectively, clinical experience at our institution suggested much higher rates.

Respiratory Organ‐on‐a‐Chip for Disease Modeling: From Architecture to Functional Integration

open access: yesAdvanced Healthcare Materials, EarlyView.
Respiratory organ‐on‐a‐chip (ROC) models capture key mechanical and cellular cues of the human respiratory system, enabling quantitative dissection of disease mechanisms. This review links ROC architectures to disease modeling, functional integration, and commercialization, and proposes a decision framework that aligns model complexity with mechanistic

A pilot study to examine association of BMI with functional class and 6 min walk distance in idiopathic and heritable PAH: Possible association with estrogen metabolism

open access: yesPulmonary Circulation, 2022
The hypothesis that a relationship exists between body mass index (BMI), functional class, and 6 min walk distance (6MWD) in Group 1‐pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) was examined.

Pulmonary artery dissection in long standing idiopathic pulmonary arterial hypertension: A case report

open access: yesRadiology Case Reports, 2022
Pulmonary arterial dissection (PAD) is a rare and often lethal complication of chronic pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH), which may occurs in patients with idiopathic pulmonary arterial hypertension (IPAH) and potentially in those with connective ...

Pulmonary Arteriopathy and Idiopathic Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension in Six Dogs [PDF]

open access: yesVeterinary Pathology, 2006
Pulmonary arteriopathy (PA) is the pathologic hallmark in human medicine of diffuse constrictive (medial and intimal remodeling) or multifocal complex (plexiform and dilatative lesions) arterial lesions, or both, that lead to irreversible obliteration of the arterial lumen.

DOT1L Drives Endothelial‐to‐Mesenchymal Transition and Fibrotic Vascular Remodeling via H3K79 Methylation

open access: yesAdvanced Science, EarlyView.
DOT1L as a central epigenetic regulator of EndoMT and pulmonary fibrosis. Acting as an early epigenetic switch, it translates TGFβ–SMAD signaling into H3K79me2‐mediated chromatin remodeling, selectively activates fibrosis‐related genes, and primes ECs for rapid mesenchymal transition.
