background nasal septal deviation (nsd) can cause upper airway obstruction, which results in hypoxia and therefore, pulmonary vasoconstriction, ventricular hypertrophy and right-sided heart failure. objectives the aim of this study is to determine the mean pulmonary arterial pressure (mpap) of the patients with nsd and the effect of septoplasty on pulmonary arterial pressure. patients and metho...
Three-week neonatal hypoxia reduces blood CGRP and causes persistent pulmonary hypertension in rats.
To increase understanding of persistent pulmonary hypertension, we examined chronic pulmonary effects of hypoxia at birth and their relationships with immunoreactive levels of the potent vasodilator, calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP). Rats were born in 10% hypobaric hypoxia, where they remained for 1-2 days, or in 15% hypoxia, where they remained for 21 days. All were then reared in normox...
Inflammation and tumor hypoxia are intimately linked and breast cancer provides a typical example of an inflammation-linked malignant disease. Indeed, breast cancer progression is actively supported by inflammatory components, including IL-1β, and by the hypoxia-inducible factor- (HIF-) 1α. In spite of many attempts where the role of either IL-1β or HIF-1α was evaluated, detailed mechanisms for...
Treatment of rats with monocrotaline (MCT), a pyrrolizidine alkaloid plant toxin, is known to cause pulmonary hypertension (PH), and it has been used as a useful experimental model of PH. Recent findings suggested that pulmonary inflammation may play a significant role in the pathogenesis of MCT-induced PH. We also demonstrated that, following MCT administration to rats, there was a significant...
Phosphodiesterase (PDE) inhibitors are currently under investigation for the therapy of pulmonary hypertension. The present study was designed to investigate chronic effects of oral pumafentrine, a mixed selective PDE-3/4 inhibitor, in monocrotaline (MCT)-induced pulmonary hypertension in rats. Treatment with pumafentrine (10 mg.kg(-1) daily) from week 4 to 6 after a single injection of MCT (60...
Prostacyclin synthase (PGIS) is the final committed enzyme in the metabolic pathway leading to prostacyclin (PGI2) production. Patients with severe pulmonary hypertension have a PGIS deficiency of their precapillary vessels, but the importance of this deficiency for lung vascular remodeling remains unclear. We hypothesized that selective pulmonary overexpression of PGIS may prevent the developm...
The purpose of this study was to investigate whether nocturnal hypoxia causes daytime blood pressure (BP) elevation. We hypothesized that overnight exposure to hypoxia leads the next morning to elevation in BP that outlasts the hypoxia stimulus. We studied the effect on BP of two consecutive night exposures to hypobaric hypoxia in 10 healthy normotensive subjects. During the hypoxia nights, sub...
BACKGROUND Cerium oxide nanoparticles (nanoceria) are effective at quenching reactive oxygen species (ROS) in cell culture and animal models. Although nanoceria reportedly deposit in lungs, their efficacy in conferring lung protection during oxidative stress remains unexplored. Thus, the study evaluated the protective efficacy of nanoceria in rat lung tissue during hypobaric hypoxia. METHODS ...
OBJECTIVES The soluble epoxide hydrolase (sEH) metabolizes epoxyeicosatrienoic acids (EETs) to their less active dihydroxy derivatives. Because EETs have antiinflammatory properties, we determined whether or not inhibition of sEH attenuates disease development in the monocrotaline model of pulmonary hypertension in rats. METHODS sEH inhibition was achieved using 12-(3-adamantan-1-yl-ureido)-d...
