2251: An estrogen receptor α (ERα)-BMPR2-apelin axis mediates 17β-estradiol’s protective effects on right ventricular function in experimental pulmonary hypertension (PH)
OBJECTIVES/SPECIFIC AIMS: Women with pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) exhibit superior right ventricular (RV) function and survival compared with men, a phenomenon attributed to poorly understood cardioprotective effects of 17β-estradiol (E2). We hypothesize that E2, through ERα, attenuates PH-...
