Journal ArticleDOI

Nitric oxide inhibits serotonin-induced calcium release in pulmonary artery smooth muscle cells.

TL;DR: No-induced inhibition of the evoked increases in [Ca2+]i and augmentation of Ca2+ sequestration into intracellular stores in PASMC are involved in the mechanisms by which NO causes pulmonary vasodilation.
Journal ArticleDOI

A mitochondrial uncoupler increases KCa currents but decreases KV currents in pulmonary artery myocytes

TL;DR: FCCP increases IK[Ca] by raising [Ca2+]i primarily as a result of Ca2+ release, but decreases IK(V) by a Ca(2+)-independent mechanism, presumably the inhibition of oxidative ATP production.
Journal ArticleDOI

Update in pulmonary hypertension 2005.

TL;DR: The focus will be entirely on pathogenetic and therapeutic aspects of pulmonary hypertension, although important articles have also been published in other areas of pulmonary vascular disease, including pulmonary embolism and high-altitude pulmonary edema.
