Cellular senescence impairs the reversibility of pulmonary arterial hypertension
The transition from reversible to irreversible pulmonary arterial hypertension involves vascular senescence and can be countered by senolysis. Reversing maladaptive remodeling Pathologic vascular remodeling of pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH ...

MicroRNAs in pulmonary arterial remodeling [PDF]
Pulmonary arterial remodeling is a presently irreversible pathologic hallmark of pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). This complex disease involves pathogenic dysregulation of all cell types within the small pulmonary arteries contributing to vascular ...

The role of endothelin-1 in pulmonary arterial hypertension. [PDF]
Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is a rare but debilitating disease, which if left untreated rapidly progresses to right ventricular failure and eventually death. In the quest to understand the pathogenesis of this disease differences in the profile,

Echocardiography combined with cardiopulmonary exercise testing for the prediction of outcome in idiopathic pulmonary arterial hypertension [PDF]
BACKGROUND: Right ventricular (RV) function is a major determinant of exercise intolerance and outcome in idiopathic pulmonary arterial hypertension (IPAH). The aim of the study was to evaluate the incremental prognostic value of echocardiography of the

Obesity, estrogens and adipose tissue dysfunction – implications for pulmonary arterial hypertension
Obesity is a prevalent global public health issue characterized by excess body fat. Adipose tissue is now recognized as an important endocrine organ releasing an abundance of bioactive adipokines including, but not limited to, leptin, adiponectin and ...

Pathogenic Role of mTORC1 and mTORC2 in Pulmonary Hypertension. [PDF]
Concentric lung vascular wall thickening due to enhanced proliferation of pulmonary arterial smooth muscle cells is an important pathological cause for the elevated pulmonary vascular resistance reported in patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension ...
