Core Tip	Pulmonary hypertension (PH) is a devastating disease with a high morbidity and mortality rate. Recent studies indicate that the metabolic alterations that occur during the course of PH have a negative effect. Importantly, PH has been observed in patients with metabolic syndrome. Caveolin-1, a membrane protein and peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor γ, a ligand activated transcription factor are abundantly expressed in vascular cells and adipocytes. They play a significant role in maintaining vascular health, and participate in glucose and lipid metabolism. Furthermore, the proximity of vasculature and adipose tissue facilitates reciprocal influence during health and disease.
