Therapy for Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension: Glance on Nitric Oxide Pathway

Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is a severe disease with a resultant increase of the mean pulmonary arterial pressure, right ventricular hypertrophy and eventual death. Research in recent years has produced various therapeutic options for its clinical management but the high mortality even und...
