Changes in pulmonary artery flow in 6-week-old and 10-week-old mice (n = 5–7). a Representative images of pulmonary artery flow by week 6. b, c Changes of pulmonary artery acceleration time/ejection time (PAT/PET) ratio at week 6 (b) and week 10 (c). Injury decreased the ratio of PAT/PET on both time points, which indicated the development of pulmonary hypertension. Early hAEC treatment restored the ratio back to control level; however, later treatment attenuated the ratio to be in the middle of the control and injury groups. Data expressed as mean ± standard error of mean (SEM). Statistical significance determined with one-way ANOVA accompanied by the Bonferroni post-hoc test. *p < 0.05, **p < 0.01, ****p < 0.0001. hAEC human amnion epithelial cell
