Remodeling Matrix Synthesis in a Rat Model of Aortocaval Fistula and the Cyclic Stretch: Impaction in Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension-Congenital Heart Disease
Pulmonary arterial hypertension-congenital heart disease (PAH-CHD) is characterized by systemic to pulmonary arterial shunts and sensitively responds to volume overload and stretch of the vascular wall leading to pulmonary vascular remodeling. We hypothesized that the responses of pulmonary artery s...
