Simvastatin ameliorates established pulmonary hypertension through a heme oxygenase-1 dependent pathway in rats
BACKGROUND: Simvastatin has been shown to ameliorate pulmonary hypertension by several mechanisms in experimental animal models. In this study, we hypothesized that the major benefits of simvastatin in pulmonary hypertension occur via the heme oxygenase-1 pathway. METHODS: Simvastatin (10 mg/kgw/day...
