Risk and Resilience in Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension and Genetically Susceptible Individuals (NCT05584722)
🩺 Plain-English Summary (8th-Grade Level)
Pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) is a severe disease with a delayed diagnosis and markedly elevated mortality. High-risk populations, such as those with known genetic defects, provide a unique opportunity to determine the features of susceptibility and resilience to PAH. This proposal will fundamentally overturn the prevailing understanding of PAH by creating molecularly-driven signatures of susceptibility and resilience, provide novel insight into disease severity, and potentially identify new therapeutic targets.
