Pulmonary Vascular Remodeling in Pulmonary Hypertension
Pulmonary vascular remodeling is the critical structural alteration and pathological feature in pulmonary hypertension (PH) and involves changes in the intima, media and adventitia. Pulmonary vascular remodeling consists of the proliferation and phenotypic transformation of pulmonary artery endothelial cells (PAECs) and pulmonary artery smooth muscle ...

Targeting Vascular Remodeling to Treat Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension [PDF]
Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) describes a group of conditions with a common hemodynamic phenotype of increased pulmonary artery pressure, driven by progressive remodeling of small pulmonary arteries, leading to right heart failure and death ...

Pulmonary Vascular Distensibility and Early Pulmonary Vascular Remodelling in Pulmonary Hypertension [PDF]
Exercise stress testing of the pulmonary circulation may uncover decreased pulmonary vascular (PV) distensibility as a cause of impaired aerobic exercise capacity and right ventricular (RV)-pulmonary arterial (PA) uncoupling. As such, it may help in the differential diagnosis of unexplained dyspnea, including pulmonary hypertension (PH) and/or heart ...

CFTR in the regulation of pulmonary vascular tone and remodeling
European Respiratory Journal, 2021We read with great interest the recently published article by Helene Le Ribeuz and colleagues on the role of CFTR in the pathogenesis of pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) in the European Respiratory Journal [1]. In this work, the authors propose that loss of cystic fibrosis transmembrane conductance regulator (CFTR) drives increased pulmonary ...

Inflammation, Growth Factors, and Pulmonary Vascular Remodeling
Inflammatory processes are prominent in various types of human and experimental pulmonary hypertension (PH) and are increasingly recognized as major pathogenic components of pulmonary vascular remodeling. Macrophages, T and B lymphocytes, and dendritic cells are present in the vascular lesions of PH, whether in idiopathic pulmonary arterial ...

Levosimendan attenuates pulmonary vascular remodeling
Intensive Care Medicine, 2011The calcium-sensitizing drug levosimendan increases myocardial contractility and, by activating K(+)-channels, dilates pulmonary vessels. In the acute setting, levosimendan is clinically used to treat right heart failure in pulmonary hypertension. As K(+)-channel activation elicits several beneficial effects in the vascular system, we hypothesized that

Role of the Adventitia in Pulmonary Vascular Remodeling
Physiology, 2006An increasing volume of experimental data indicates that the adventitial fibroblast, in both the pulmonary and systemic circulations, is a critical regulator of vascular wall function in health and disease. A rapidly emerging concept is that the vascular adventitia acts as biological processing center for the retrieval, integration, storage, and ...
