Abstract excerpt
Objective: To explore the molecular mechanism of docosahexaenoic acid (DHA) on regulating the phenotype switching of hypoxia-induced pulmonary arterial smooth muscle cells (PASMCs). Methods: The PASMCs were isolated from Sprague Dawley rats. PASMCs were divided into five groups: normal control group, hypoxia group (1%O(2, )94%N(2, )5% CO(2) stimulation for 12 hours), hypoxia+ DHA group (10 μmol/L DHA pretreatment...
