Evidence for PDZ‐Binding Kinase in Lung Disease With an Emphasis on PAH
ABSTRACT Originally named T‐cell‐originated Lymphokine‐activated killer protein kinase (TOPK), PDZ‐Binding Kinase (PBK) is a serine/threonine kinase that is a member of the family of mitogen‐activated protein kinases (MAPKKs), which is overexpressed in lung cancer and interstitial pulmonary fibrosis (IPF). Along these lines, recent work also shows that

ABSTRACT Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is a rare disease with poor prognosis. The same treatment is recommended in patients with PAH associated with connective tissue disease (CTD) and idiopathic PAH (IPAH). However, the effectiveness of PAH‐specific treatment in these both groups is inconsistent.

Riociguat reduces and alters hyperoxia-induced lung inflammation.
(A) Immunostaining for Mac-3, a macrophage marker. (B) The alveolar airspace macrophage population was increased by hyperoxia exposure as compared to normoxia. Administration of riociguat decreased macrophage count during hyperoxia.

ABSTRACT Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is a progressive illness that may require therapy with parenteral prostacyclin pathway agents (PPA) (epoprostenol and treprostinil). These parenteral PPA's are continuous ambulatory infusions that require a high level of skill and knowledge to maintain safety and effectiveness.

This study aimed to investigate the potential protective effects of riociguat, a soluble guanylyl cyclase (sGC) stimulator, on kidney function and structure in rats with acute kidney injury (AKI) induced by the chemotherapeutic drug doxorubicin (DX ...

Scientific Reports / The soluble guanylate cyclase stimulator riociguat reduces fibrogenesis and portal pressure in cirrhotic rats [PDF]
In cirrhotic patients, portal hypertension (PHT) deteriorates survival, yet treatment options are limited. A major contributor to increased intrahepatic vasoconstriction in PHT is dysfunctional nitric-oxide signaling.

Observed Weight Gain in Patients With Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension Treated With Sotatercept
ABSTRACT Sotatercept, an activin signaling inhibitor for pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH), has demonstrated significant improvements in clinical outcomes though its off‐target effects are still an area for discovery. Anecdotal increases in total body weight not attributable to fluid retention have been observed.
