The normal pulmonary circulation is a low-pressure, high-compliance system. Pulmonary
arterial compliance decreases in the presence of pulmonary hypertension because of …

Alveolarization is the process by which the alveoli, the principal gas exchange units of the
lung, are formed. Along with the maturation of the pulmonary vasculature, alveolarization is …

Alterations in extracellular matrix (ECM) have been implicated in the pathophysiology of
pulmonary hypertension. Here, we have undertaken a compartment-specific study to …

Rationale: The role of neutrophils and their extracellular vesicles (EVs) in the pathogenesis
of pulmonary arterial hypertension is unclear. Objectives: To relate functional abnormalities …

The time-course of pulmonary arterial hypertension in the monocrotaline (MCT) model was
investigated. Male rats were divided into two groups: MCT (received a 60 mg/kg ip injection) …

Design-based stereology is the gold standard of morphometry in lung research. Here, we
analyze the current use of morphometric and stereological methods in lung research and …

The biomechanical properties of artery are primarily determined by the fibrous structures in
the vessel wall. Many vascular diseases are associated with alternations in the orientation …

Background Progressive dilatation of pulmonary autografts after the Ross operation may
reflect inadequate remodeling of the native pulmonary root to adapt to systemic circulation …

Chronic hypoxia during gestation induces greater occurrence of perinatal complications
such as intrauterine growth restriction, fetal hypoxia, newborn asphyxia, and respiratory …

To eliminate the pollutants exhausting, this paper presents an idea of using compressed air
as the power source for engines. Instead of an internal combustion (IC) engine, this …
