Altered reactivity of pulmonary vessels in postobstructive pulmonary vasculopathy.
Chronic ligation of one pulmonary artery results in pulmonary vascular remodeling and bronchial angiogenesis, collectively known as postobstructive pulmonary vasculopathy (POPV). To investigate pulmonary vascular reactivity in POPV, we ligated the left main pulmonary artery of guinea pigs and, after 1-10 mo, prepared explants by inflating lungs with agarose and sectioning them into approximatel...
متن کاملEffect of thoracic epidural blockade on hypoxia-induced pulmonary arterial hypertension in rats
Objective(s): The present study was aimed to investigate the influence of thoracic epidural blockade on hypoxia-induced pulmonary hypertension in rats. Materials and Methods: Forty eight Wistar rats were randomly divided into 4 equal groups, named normoxia hypoxia hypoxia/ ropivacaine and hypoxia/saline. Animals were placed in a hypoxia chamber and instrumented with epidural catheters at the t...
متن کاملEndothelin reactivity and receptor profile of pulmonary vessels in postobstructive pulmonary vasculopathy.
Chronic ligation of one pulmonary artery results in pulmonary vascular remodeling and bronchial angiogenesis, collectively known as postobstructive pulmonary vasculopathy (POPV). To determine whether the reactivity of pulmonary vessels to endothelins (ET) was altered in POPV and to explore potential mechanisms, we ligated the left main pulmonary artery of 18 rats. Four weeks later, using a lung...
متن کاملSevere Pulmonary Arteriopathy Is Associated with Persistent Hypoxemia after Pulmonary Endarterectomy in Chronic Thromboembolic Pulmonary Hypertension
BACKGROUND Chronic thromboembolic pulmonary hypertension (CTEPH) is characterized by occlusion of pulmonary arteries by organized chronic thrombi. Persistent hypoxemia and residual pulmonary hypertension (PH) following successful pulmonary endarterectomy (PEA) are clinically important problems; however, the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. We have previously reported that residual PH is cl...
متن کاملCyclin-Dependent Kinase Inhibitor p27, But Not p21, Is Required for Inhibition of Hypoxia-Induced Pulmonary Hypertension and Remodeling by Heparin in Mice
Heparin has growth inhibitory effects on pulmonary artery smooth muscle cell (PASMC) in vitro and in vivo. However, the mechanism has not been fully defined. In this study, we investigated the role of cyclin-dependent kinase inhibitors, p21 (p21) and p27 (p27), in the inhibitory effect of heparin on PASMC proliferation in vitro and on hypoxia-induced pulmonary hypertension in vivo using p21 and...
