Genetics of Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension [PDF]
Tremendous progress has been made in understanding the genetics of pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) since its description in the 1950s as a primary disorder of the pulmonary vasculature. Heterozygous germline mutations in the gene coding bone morphogenetic receptor type 2 (BMPR2) are detectable in the majority of cases of heritable PAH, and in ...

Animal Models of Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension and Their Application in Drug Research
Pulmonary arterial hypertension is a clinical syndrome characterized by pulmonary vascular remodeling causing increased vascular resistance, which will lead to right heart failure and even death if left untreated.

The role of the right ventricle in pulmonary arterial hypertension [PDF]
Although changes in the pulmonary vasculature are the primary cause of pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH), severity of symptoms and survival are strongly associated with right ventricular function, and right heart failure is the main cause of death in

Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension
It is important for the general internist to maintain a high degree of suspicion for pulmonary hypertension in appropriate cases. This article reviews the definition and classification of pulmonary hypertension, epidemiology and risk factors, signs and symptoms, diagnostic approach, and treatment strategies.

Matrix metalloproteinase 7 in diagnosis and differentiation of pulmonary arterial hypertension
Pulmonary arterial hypertension is a severe disease for which diagnosis often is delayed. Matrix metalloproteinases have been suggested to play a role in vascular remodeling and pulmonary hypertension development. Our aim was therefore to investigate the
