Journal ArticleDOI

Pulmonary arterial hypertension: pathogenesis and clinical management.

TL;DR: Patients with PAH have dyspnea, reduced exercise capacity, exertional syncope, and premature death from right ventricular failure, and targeted therapies, used alone or in combination, improve functional capacity and hemodynamics and reduce hospital admissions.
Journal ArticleDOI

MicroRNA-138 and MicroRNA-25 Down-regulate Mitochondrial Calcium Uniporter, Causing the Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension Cancer Phenotype

TL;DR: In this paper, the pore-forming subunit, MCU, was manipulated through small interfering RNA knockdown or MCU plasmid-mediated up-regulation, as well as through modulation of the upstream microRNAs (miRs) miR-138 and miR25.
Journal ArticleDOI

Immune regulation of systemic hypertension, pulmonary arterial hypertension, and preeclampsia: shared disease mechanisms and translational opportunities

TL;DR: The identification of common immune mechanisms in systemic hypertension, preeclampsia, and PAH raises the possibility of new therapeutic strategies that target the immune component of hypertension across multiple disorders.
