HDAC9 is implicated in atherosclerotic aortic calcification and affects vascular smooth muscle cell phenotype

TL;DR: This translational genomic study identifies the first genetic risk locus associated with calcification of the abdominal aorta and describes a previously unknown role for HDAC9 in the development of vascular calcification, showing that HDAC 9 promotes an osteogenic vascular smooth muscle cell phenotype, enhancing calcification and reducing contractility.
Journal ArticleDOI

Inhaled Agonists of Soluble Guanylate Cyclase Induce Selective Pulmonary Vasodilation

TL;DR: Inhalation of microparticles containing agonists of s GC may provide an effective novel treatment for patients with pulmonary hypertension, particularly when responsiveness to iNO is impaired by oxidation of sGC.
Journal ArticleDOI

Binding and neutralization of endotoxin by Limulus antilipopolysaccharide factor.

TL;DR: LPS preincubated with LALF was less mitogenic for murine splenocytes, was less pyrogenic in the rabbit fever assay, and was less lethal in mice which had been sensitized to LPS with actinomycin D, and induced less fever, neutropenia, and pulmonary hypertension when infused into sheep.
Journal ArticleDOI

Selective Pulmonary Vasodilation Induced by Aerosolized Zaprinast

TL;DR: Aerosolization of a cGMP‐selective phosphodiesterase inhibitor alone or combined with NO may be a useful noninvasive therapeutic method to treat acute or chronic pulmonary hypertension.
