DOIAbstract
<p>Numbers of macrophages per 100<sup>2</sup> of lung parenchyma were increased in pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH) vs. controls (49.0±4.5 vs. 7.95±1.9/100 mm<sup>2</sup>, ***p<0.001). Additionally, p65+ macrophages were increased in PAH compared with controls (52.4±2.15% vs. 71.6±2.98%, ***p<0.001) and in the nucleus in PAH compared to controls (3.5±1.3% vs. 16.9±2.5%, ***p<0.001). Results are expressed as mean ± SEM for 12 PAH and 14 control subjects.</p
