Phosphatidylinositol 4‐kinase as a target of pathogens—friend or foe?

FEBS Letters, EarlyView.
This graphical summary illustrates the roles of phosphatidylinositol 4‐kinases (PI4Ks). PI4Ks regulate key cellular processes and can be hijacked by pathogens, such as viruses, bacteria and parasites, to support their intracellular replication. Their dual role as essential host enzymes and pathogen cofactors makes them promising drug targets.

Prognosis and Treatment With Phosphodiesterase 5 Inhibitors in Combined Post‐ and Precapillary Pulmonary Hypertension: A Propensity Score‐Matched Analysis From the Hellenic Pulmonary Hypertension Registry

Pulmonary Circulation
Combined post‐ and precapillary pulmonary hypertension (CpcPH) comprises the most severe form of postcapillary PH. A severe precapillary component (pulmonary vascular resistance [PVR] > 5 WU) is critical for therapeutic decisions.

Dobutamine stress MRI in pulmonary hypertension: relationships between stress pulmonary artery relative area change, RV performance, and 10-year survival [PDF]

, 2017
In pulmonary hypertension (PH), right ventricular (RV) performance determines survival. Pulmonary artery (PA) stiffening is an important biomechanical event in PH and also predicts survival based on the PA relative area change (RAC) measured at rest ...
