Genome-Wide Association Study of Blood Pressure Extremes Identifies Variant near UMOD Associated with Hypertension

Sandosh Padmanabhan, +82 more
- 28 Oct 2010 - 
TL;DR: The newly discovered UMOD locus for hypertension has the potential to give new insights into the role of uromodulin in BP regulation and to identify novel drugable targets for reducing cardiovascular risk.
Journal ArticleDOI

Endothelial to Mesenchymal Transition in Cardiovascular Disease: JACC State-of-the-Art Review.

TL;DR: A framework for its systematic advancement at the molecular and translational levels is proposed and a number of challenges are reviewed, including the lack of a precise functional and molecular definition, lack of understanding of the causative pathological role of EndMT in CVDs, and a lack of robust human data corroborating the extent and causality.
Journal ArticleDOI

A Role for miR-145 in Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension Evidence From Mouse Models and Patient Samples

TL;DR: In this article, the role of miR-145 in pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) was evaluated in mice treated with anti-miRs via measurement of systolic right ventricular pressure, right ventriches hypertrophy, and percentage of remodeled pulmonary arteries.
Journal ArticleDOI

MicroRNA-143 Activation Regulates Smooth Muscle and Endothelial Cell Crosstalk in Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension

TL;DR: MiR-143-3p modulated both cellular and exosome-mediated responses in pulmonary vascular cells, whereas inhibition of miR- 143- 3p blocked experimental pulmonary hypertension, and these findings confirm an important role for the miR/145 cluster in PAH pathobiology.
