| Factor | filamin A expression |
| Description | FLNA, a homodimer of 280 kDa, belongs to the nonmuscle actin binding protein family and is widely expressed in human tissue. filamin A expression was significantly increased |
| Biomarker | YES |
| Classification | E2 (physiological factor - biochemical index) |

| Application | prognosis |
| Objective | increased in the irreversible CHD-PAH group |
| p Value | <0.05 |
| Conclusion | Upregulated caveolin-1, filamin A, and cathepsin D combined with increased macrophagocytes and downregulated GSTM1 may be potential biomarkers and targets in the irreversibility CHD-PAH, and which may be useful in evaluating the operability and understanding the irreversibility of CHD-PAH. Expression of these pathological biomarkers combined with pathological changes in lung biopsy may have great value in predicting the irreversibility of PAH. |
