Chronic Thromboembolic Pulmonary Hypertension: A Review of the Multifaceted Pathobiology

open access: yesBiomedicines, 2023
Chronic thromboembolic pulmonary disease results from the incomplete resolution of thrombi, leading to fibrotic obstructions. These vascular obstructions and additional microvasculopathy may lead to chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH ...

TLRs in pulmonary diseases

open access: yesLife Sciences, 2019
Toll-like receptors (TLRs) comprise a clan of proteins involved in identification and triggering a suitable response against pathogenic attacks. As lung is steadily exposed to multiple infectious agents, antigens and host-derived danger signals, the inhabiting stromal and myeloid cells of the lung express an aggregate of TLRs which perceive the ...

Higher circulating Trimethylamine N-oxide levels are associated with worse severity and prognosis in pulmonary hypertension: a cohort study

open access: yesRespiratory Research, 2022
Background Trimethylamine N-oxide (TMAO), the gut microbiota-dependent metabolite, is a potential biomarker in several cardiovascular diseases. However, no study has investigated its value in pulmonary hypertension (PH).

Autophagy in Pulmonary Diseases [PDF]

open access: yesAmerican Journal of Respiratory and Critical Care Medicine, 2016
The pathogenesis of pulmonary diseases is often complex and characterized by multiple cellular events, including inflammation, cell death, and cell proliferation. The mechanisms by which these events are regulated in pulmonary diseases remain poorly understood.

Protein engineering to develop a redox insensitive endothelial nitric oxide synthase

open access: yesRedox Biology, 2014
The zinc tetrathiolate (ZnS4) cluster is an important structural feature of endothelial nitric oxide synthase (eNOS). The cluster is located on the dimeric interface and four cysteine residues (C94 and C99 from two adjacent subunits) form a cluster with ...

Iron pill aspiration syndrome: A case report and literature review

open access: yesRespiratory Medicine Case Reports, 2023
Aspiration of iron pill containing ferrous sulfate into the airway can induce fulminant chemical burn and necrosis of the airway mucosa. Acute chemical burn and inflammatory response can result in life-threatening airway compromise. It can also result in

Cellular senescence mediates fibrotic pulmonary disease

open access: yesNature Communications, 2017
Idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis (IPF) is a fatal disease characterized by interstitial remodelling, leading to compromised lung function. Cellular senescence markers are detectable within IPF lung tissue and senescent cell deletion rejuvenates pulmonary ...

Critical care outcomes in patients with pre-existing pulmonary hypertension: insights from the ASPIRE registry

open access: yesERJ Open Research, 2021
Pulmonary hypertension (PH) is a life-shortening condition characterised by episodes of decompensation precipitated by factors such as disease progression, arrhythmias and sepsis. Surgery and pregnancy also place additional strain on the right ventricle.
