AMD3100 prevented severe pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) in the SU5416/chronic hypoxia (SuHx) model. FarkasDaniela KraskauskasDonatas I. DrakeJennifer A. AlhussainiAysar KraskauskieneVita J. BogaardHarm D. CoolCarlyne F. VoelkelNorbert FarkasLaszlo 2014 <p>(<b>A</b>) Representative von Willebrand Factor (vWF) immunohistochemistry indicates the occlusion of pulmonary arteries (arrows). These images demonstrate that treatment with the CXC chemokine receptor 4 inhibitor AMD3100 only partially prevented the obliteration of pulmonary arteries. Counterstaining: Mayer’s Hematoxylin. Magnification: 100×. Scale bar: 100 µm. (<b>B</b>) Reduced right ventricular systolic pressure (RVSP) and (<b>C</b>) decreased right ventricle (RV)/(left ventricle [LV]+Septum) ratio. (<b>D</b>) Reduced pulmonary arterial muscularization (external diameter [ED] <100 µm) was detected after AMD3100 treatment. (<b>E-F</b>) The degree of obliteration of pulmonary arteries in AMD3100-treated SuHx animals was partially reduced for small (E) (25 µmP<0.05, ** <i>P</i><0.01, *** <i>P</i><0.0001.</p>
