Implication of EZH2 in the Pro-Proliferative and Apoptosis-Resistant Phenotype of Pulmonary Artery Smooth Muscle Cells in PAH: A Transcriptomic and Proteomic Approach
15 Mar 2021
Abstract excerpt
Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is a progressive disorder characterized by a sustained elevation of pulmonary artery (PA) pressure, right ventricular failure, and premature death. Enhanced proliferation and resistance to apoptosis (as seen in cancer cells) of PA smooth muscle cells (PASMCs) is a major pathological hallmark contributing to pulmonary vascular remodeling in PAH, for which current therapies...
