List of ALK1- and BMPR2-mutated HMVECs that were isolated from explanted lungs of PAH patients, indicating the carried mutation, the type of mutation and the mutated or deleted ALK1 or BMPR2 domain, in addition to some characteristics and treatments of the patient. Control lung specimens were obtained from normal tissue collected at a distance from tumors from patients with localized lung cancer. The age, gender and diagnosis of the individuals were specified
