The nitric oxide–soluble guanylate cyclase–cGMP pathway in pulmonary hypertension: from PDE5 to soluble guanylate cyclase
The nitric oxide (NO)–soluble guanylate cyclase (sGC)–cyclic guanosine monophosphate (cGMP) pathway plays a key role in the pathogenesis of pulmonary hypertension (PH). Targeted treatments include phosphodiesterase type 5 inhibitors (PDE5i) and sGC stimulators. The sGC stimulator riociguat is approv...
