Neurohormonal modulation in pulmonary arterial hypertension.

ABSTRACT: Pulmonary hypertension is a fatal condition of elevated pulmonary pressures, complicated by right heart failure. Pulmonary hypertension appears in various forms; one of those is pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) and is particularly characterised by progressive remodelling and obstruction of the smaller pulmonary vessels. Neurohormonal imbalance in these patients is associated with worse prognosis and survival. In this back-to-basics review on neurohormonal modulation in PAH, we provide an overview of the pharmacological and non-pharmacological strategies that have been tested preclinically and clinically. The benefit of neurohormonal modulation strategies in PAH patients has been limited by lack of insight in how the neurohormonal system is changed throughout the disease and difficulties in translation from animal models to human trials. We propose that longitudinal and individual assessments of neurohormonal status are required to improve timing and specificity of neurohormonal modulation strategies. Ongoing developments in imaging techniques such as positron emission tomography (PET) may become helpful to determine neurohormonal status in PAH patients in different disease stages and optimise individual treatment responses.

Neurohormonal Modulation as a Therapeutic Target in Pulmonary Hypertension.

Project description:The autonomic nervous system (ANS) and renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS) are involved in many cardiovascular disorders, including pulmonary hypertension (PH). The current review focuses on the role of the ANS and RAAS activation in PH and updated evidence of potential therapies targeting both systems in this condition, particularly in Groups 1 and 2. State of the art knowledge in preclinical and clinical use of pharmacologic drugs (beta-blockers, beta-three adrenoceptor agonists, or renin-angiotensin-aldosterone signaling drugs) and invasive procedures, such as pulmonary artery denervation, is provided.

Metabolic syndrome, neurohumoral modulation, and pulmonary arterial hypertension.

Project description:Pulmonary vascular disease, including pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH), is increasingly recognized to be affected by systemic alterations including up-regulation of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system and perturbations to metabolic pathways, particularly glucose and fat metabolism. There is increasing preclinical and clinical data that each of these pathways can promote pulmonary vascular disease and right heart failure and are not simply disease markers. More recently, trials of therapeutics aimed at neurohormonal activation or metabolic dysfunction are beginning to shed light on how interventions in these pathways may affect patients with PAH. This review will focus on underlying mechanistic data that supports neurohormonal activation and metabolic dysfunction in the pathogenesis of PAH and right heart failure as well as discussing early translational data in patients with PAH.

Neurohormonal modulation as therapeutic avenue for right ventricular dysfunction in pulmonary artery hypertension: till the dawn, waiting.

Project description:Neuro-hormonal activation may lead to or be associated with pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) and right ventricular dysfunction. Notwithstanding whether it is the cause or the consequence of PAH-related right ventricle (RV) dysfunction neurohormonal activation contributes to significant morbidity and mortality in patients with PAH and the progression of RV dysfunction. Experimental data regarding the use of beta adrenergic blockade and renin-angiotensin aldosterone system modulation are encouraging. However, clinical studies have largely been negative or neutral; and, neuro-hormonal modulation is discouraged in patients with PAH related RV dysfunction for fear of systemic hypotension. Herein, we summarize the pathophysiological background that supports the potential role of neuro-hormonal modulation in the management of PAH related RV dysfunction; also present current clinical experience; and, discuss the need for controlled studies to move forward. Lastly, we review potential non- pharmacological modalities for neuro-hormonal modulations in PAH patients with RV dysfunction.

Metabolomic heterogeneity of severe pulmonary arterial hypertension

Project description:Although multiple gene and protein expression have been extensively profiled in human pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH), the mechanism for the development and progression of pulmonary hypertension remains elusive. Analysis of the global metabolomic heterogeneity within the pulmonary vascular system leads to a better understanding of disease progression. Using a combination of high-throughput liquid-and-gas-chromatography-based mass spectrometry, we showed unbiased metabolomic profiles of disrupted glycolysis, increased TCA cycle, and fatty acid metabolites with altered oxidation pathways in the severe human PAH lung. The results suggest that PAH has specific metabolic pathways contributing to increased ATP synthesis for the vascular remodeling process in severe pulmonary hypertension. These identified metabolites may serve as potential biomarkers for the diagnosis of severe PAH. By profiling metabolomic alterations of the PAH lung, we reveal new pathogenic mechanisms of PAH in its later stage, which may differ from the earlier stage of PAH, opening an avenue of exploration for therapeutics that target metabolic pathway alterations in the progression of PAH. Global profiles were determined in human lung tissue and compared across 11 normal and 12 severe pulmonary arterial hypertension patients. Using a combination of microarray and high-throughput liquid-and-gas-chromatography-based mass spectrometry, we showed unbiased metabolomic profiles of disrupted glycolysis, increased TCA cycle, and fatty acid metabolites with altered oxidation pathways in the severe human PAH lung.

Heart ventricles proteomic profile in pulmonary arterial hypertension

Project description:Arterial pulmonary hypertension is a rare disease, with little knowledge regarding its etiology, and high mortality. Development of right and later on also left ventricular heart insufficiency, secondary to pulmonary hypertension, is a negative predictive factor. Genetic and molecular processes underlying left heart ventricle remodeling over the course of pulmonary hypertension remain unknown. In particular, there is no knowledge regarding the mechanisms of left heart ventricle atrophy which was completely avoided by researchers until recently.The aim of this study was to assess changes in protein abundance in left and right heart ventricle free wall of rats in monocrotaline model of PAH.

Schistosomiasis Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension.

Project description:Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is a disease of the lung blood vessels that results in right heart failure. PAH is thought to occur in about 5% to 10% of patients with hepatosplenic schistosomiasis, particularly due to S. mansoni. The lung blood vessel injury may result from a combination of embolization of eggs through portocaval shunts into the lungs causing localized Type 2 inflammatory response and vessel remodeling, triggering of autonomous pathology that becomes independent of the antigen, and high cardiac output as seen in portopulmonary hypertension. The condition is likely underdiagnosed as there is little systematic screening, and risk factors for developing PAH are not known. Screening is done by echocardiography, and formal diagnosis requires invasive right heart catheterization. Patients with Schistosoma-associated PAH show reduced functional capacity and can be treated with pulmonary vasodilators, which improves symptoms and may improve survival. There are animal models of this disease that might help in understanding disease pathogenesis and identify novel targets to screen and treatment. Pathogenic mechanisms include Type 2 immunity and activation and signaling in the TGF-? pathway. There are still major uncertainties regarding Schistosoma-associated PAH development, course and treatment.

Endothelial DNA methalytion signature in pulmonary arterial hypertension

Project description:Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is a severe and incurable pulmonary vascular disease. One of the primary origins of PAH is pulmonary endothelial dysfunction leading to vasoconstriction, aberrant angiogenesis and smooth muscle cell proliferation, endothelial-to-mesenchymal transition, thrombosis and inflammation. Our objective was to study the epigenetic variations in pulmonary endothelial cells (PEC) through a specific pattern of DNA methylation. DNA was extracted from cultured PEC from patients with idiopathic PAH (n=11), heritable PAH (n=10) and controls (n=18). ). DNA methylation was assessed using the Illumina HumanMethylation450 Assay. After normalization, samples and probes were clustered according to their methylation profile. Differential clusters were functionally analysed using bioinformatics tools.
