Cinaciguat Prevents Postnatal Closure of Ductus Arteriosus by Vasodilation and Anti-remodeling in Neonatal Rats
Closure of the ductus arteriosus (DA) involves vasoconstriction and vascular remodeling. Cinaciguat, a soluble guanylyl cyclase (sGC) activator, was reported with vasodilatory and anti-remodeling effects on pulmonary hypertensive vessels. However, its effects on DA are not understood. Therefore, we...
