Pulmonary hypertension related to pulmonary fibrosis is classed as WHO Group III, one of the most common groups which lacks effective treatment options. In this study, we aimed to uncover the underlying mechanisms, particularly the involvement of the BMP9/BMPR2/SMAD signalling pathway, in this subtype of pulmonary hypertension.
