Pulmonary hypertension (PH) is a severe cardiopulmonary disease characterized by pulmonary vascular remodeling. Immunoglobulin E (IgE) known to participate in aortic remodeling, but whether IgE mediates unknown. In the present study, we found serum elevation arterial (PAH) patients, hypoxia-induced PH mice and monocrotaline-induced rats. Neutralizing with an anti-IgE antibody was effective prev...
The objective of this study is to investigate whether stem cell delivery of secreted Klotho (SKL), an aging-suppressor protein, attenuates monocrotaline-induced pulmonary vascular dysfunction and remodeling. Overexpression of SKL in mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) was achieved by transfecting MSCs with lentiviral vectors expressing SKL-green fluorescent protein (GFP). Four groups of rats were tre...
Hypoxia and exertion are considered as the two main factors in the development of high-altitude pulmonary oedema (HAPE), however its pathophysiology remains unclear. Therefore, we established a model in which 32 Sprague-Dawley rats were randomly assigned to normoxic rest, hypoxic rest, normoxic exercise and hypoxic exercise. An altitude of 4,700 m was simulated using hypobaric hypoxia, while ex...
Thiazolidinediones (TZDs) are insulin-sensitizing agents that also decrease systemic blood pressure, attenuate the formation of atherosclerotic lesions, and block remodeling of injured arterial walls. Recently, TZDs were shown to prevent pulmonary arterial (PA) remodeling in rats treated with monocrotaline. Presently we report studies testing the ability of the TZD rosiglitazone (ROSI) to atten...
STUDY OBJECTIVES We sought to compare arterial oxygen partial pressure (PaO2) relationships between a 15.1% hypoxia inhalation test (HIT) at sea level and a hypobaric chamber exposure equivalent to 2,438 m (8,000 feet) of altitude above sea level in patients with chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) and healthy subjects. DESIGN Comparison of physiologic variables before and during int...
BACKGROUND Pulmonary hypertension (PH) is a serious disease with poor prognosis. Reports show that cells in remodeled pulmonary arteries of PH patients have similar characteristics to cancer cells, such as exuberant inflammation, increased proliferation, and decreased apoptosis. An ideal strategy for developing PH therapies is to directly target pulmonary vascular remodeling. High levels of his...
HHP (hypobaric hypoxia preconditioning) induces the overexpression of HSP70 (heat-shock protein 70), as well as tolerance to cerebral ischaemia. In the present study, we hypothesized that HHP would protect against HAE (high-altitude exposure)-induced acute lung injury and oedema via promoting the expression of HSP70 in lungs prior to the onset of HAE. At 2 weeks after the start of HHP, animals ...
Decreased physical performance is a well-known consequence of rapid ascent to high altitude. Hypoxic pulmonary vasoconstriction (HPV) potentially limits cardiac output and systemic blood flow, thus preventing successful adaptation to rapid ascent. We hypothesized that pharmacological enhancement of the heart rate with theophylline, combined with reversal of HPV via endothelin blockade, could in...
