medicine | PDE5 inhibition suppresses RhoA/Rho-associated kinase-mediated MMP-2 production by pulmonary artery smooth muscle cells, which may contribute to the regulation of pulmonary vascular remodelling. Thus, PDE5 inhibition may benefit patients with pulmonary hypertension through multiple mechanisms of action | Rattus norvegicus |
