Background: Pulmonary hypertension (PH) can cause medial thickening, a hallmark of pulmonary arterial remodeling. The serotonin (5HT) pathway has been suggested as a factor associated with PH by inducing pulmonary arterial smooth muscle cells (SMCs) proliferation, a major cause of medial thickening....
