Elastin stabilization prevents impaired biomechanics in human pulmonary arteries and pulmonary hypertension in rats with left heart disease

open access: yesNature Communications, 2023
Pulmonary hypertension worsens outcome in left heart disease. Stiffening of the pulmonary artery may drive this pathology by increasing right ventricular dysfunction and lung vascular remodeling.

Assessment of reversibility in pulmonary arterial hypertension and congenital heart disease

open access: yesHeart, 2018
Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) in congenital heart disease (CHD) can be reversed by early shunt closure, but this potential is lost beyond a certain point of no return.
