Pathogenesis of Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension
Pulmonary hypertension can be classified into 4 categories: pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH), pulmonary venous hypertension, pulmonary hypertension associated with hypoxemia, and pulmonary hypertension due to chronic thrombotic or embolic disease. PAH is a progressive and often fatal condition that predominantly affects women. Approximately 10% of patients diagnosed with PAH without a demo...
متن کاملInterleukin-6/interleukin-21 signaling axis is critical in the pathogenesis of pulmonary arterial hypertension.
IL-6 is a multifunctional proinflammatory cytokine that is elevated in the serum of patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) and can predict the survival of patients with idiopathic PAH (IPAH). Previous animal experiments and clinical human studies indicate that IL-6 is important in PAH; however, the molecular mechanisms of IL-6-mediated pathogenesis of PAH have been elusive. Here we...
متن کاملSickle cell anemia-associated pulmonary arterial hypertension.
Pulmonary hypertension is a common complication of sickle cell anemia. Despite the fact that the elevations in pulmonary artery pressures are slight, morbidity and mortality are high. In adult sickle cell anemia patients, pulmonary hypertension is emerging as a major risk factor for death. The pathogenesis of sickle cell anemia-related pulmonary hypertension is multifactorial, including hemolys...
متن کاملThalassemia Associated Pulmonary Hypertension
Cardiac disease is the main cause of death in both forms of thalassemia; thalassemia major (TM) and thalassemia intermedia (TI). Pulmonary hypertension (PH) is one of the cardiopulmonary morbidities with high mortality that, if not treated, may trigger right-sided heart failure and premature death. PH is defined as a mean pulmonary artery pressure of ≥25 mmHg at rest or ≥30 mmHg during exercise...
متن کاملMolecular pathogenesis of pulmonary arterial hypertension.
Recent clinical and experimental studies are redefining the cellular and molecular bases of pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). The genetic abnormalities first identified in association with the idiopathic form of PAH--together with a vast increase in our understanding of cell signaling, cell transformation, and cell-cell interactions; gene expression; microRNA processing; and mitochondrial ...
