    Sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 (SGLT-2) inhibitors represent a cutting-edge class of oral antidiabetic therapeutics that operate through selective inhibition of glucose reabsorption in proximal renal tubules, consequently augmenting urinary glucose excretion and attenuating blood glucose levels. Extensive clinical investigations have demonstrated their profound cardiovascular efficacy. Parallel basic science research has elucidated the mechanistic pathways through which diverse SGLT-2 inhibitors beneficially modulate pulmonary vascular cells and arterial remodeling. Specifically, these inhibitors exhibit promising potential in enhancing pulmonary vascular endothelial cell function, suppressing pulmonary smooth muscle cell proliferation and migration, reversing pulmonary arterial remodeling, and maintaining hemodynamic equilibrium. This comprehensive review synthesizes current literature to delineate the mechanisms by which SGLT-2 inhibitors enhance pulmonary vascular cell function and reverse pulmonary remodeling, thereby offering novel therapeutic perspectives for pulmonary vascular diseases.
