Abstract
Session V of the inaugural biennial Research Symposium on Pulmonary Injury and Repair of the Endothelium showcased cutting-edge research on pulmonary endothelial crosstalk with end organs and its role in vascular disease. Growing evidence suggests that communication between injured organs and distal vascular beds plays a critical role in the pathogenesis of complex conditions such as sepsis, acute respiratory distress syndrome, pulmonary arterial hypertension, and heart failure with preserved ejection fraction. Circulating mediators-including heparan sulfate fragments, proinflammatory cytokines, mitochondrial damage-associated molecular patterns, bone morphogenetic protein 9, bile acids, and nitric oxide-have emerged as key factors linking pulmonary endothelial dysfunction to neural impairment, acute kidney injury, subclinical liver injury, and left-sided heart disease. This review highlights recent advances in the field, identifies critical knowledge gaps, and outlines future research directions aimed at elucidating mechanisms of multiorgan dysfunction and identifying novel therapeutic targets.
期刊介绍:
The American Journal of Physiology-Lung Cellular and Molecular Physiology publishes original research covering the broad scope of molecular, cellular, and integrative aspects of normal and abnormal function of cells and components of the respiratory system. Areas of interest include conducting airways, pulmonary circulation, lung endothelial and epithelial cells, the pleura, neuroendocrine and immunologic cells in the lung, neural cells involved in control of breathing, and cells of the diaphragm and thoracic muscles. The processes to be covered in the Journal include gas-exchange, metabolic control at the cellular level, intracellular signaling, gene expression, genomics, macromolecules and their turnover, cell-cell and cell-matrix interactions, cell motility, secretory mechanisms, membrane function, surfactant, matrix components, mucus and lining materials, lung defenses, macrophage function, transport of salt, water and protein, development and differentiation of the respiratory system, and response to the environment.
