Obesity and pulmonary arterial hypertension: Is adiponectin the molecular link between these conditions?
Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is a condition of unknown etiology whose pathological features include increased vascular resistance, perivascular inflammatory cell infiltration and pulmonary arteriolar remodeling. Although risk factors for PAH are poorly defined, recent studies indicate that obesity may be an important risk factor for this condition. The mechanisms leading to this associ...
متن کاملThe Missing Link between Itch and Inflammation in Atopic Dermatitis
Atopic dermatitis is a common skin disease with high morbidity and is associated with severe itch and chronic skin inflammation. In this issue of Cell, Wilson et al. demonstrate that epithelial cells communicate directly with cutaneous sensory neurons via a cytokine to induce itch.

متن کاملPulmonary megakaryocytes: "missing link" between cardiovascular and respiratory disease?
Pulmonary megakaryocytes were quantitated in a series of 30 consecutive hospital necropsies using a two stage immunoperoxidase stain for factor VIII related antigen. In all 30 cases they were found with a mean density of 14.65 megakaryocytes/cm2 in lung sections of 5 micron in thickness. The maximum concentration of intrapulmonary megakaryocytes was consistently found to be in the central zone ...
