Decreased susceptibility of cardiac function to hypoxia-reoxygenation in renin-angiotensin transgenic rats
Wagner et al tested the hypothesis that the renin-angiotensin system (RAS) protects the contractile function of the myocardium against the damaging effect of hypoxia-reoxygenation. For this purpose, the contractility of isolated papillary muscles from wild-type rats and from rats expressing human re...

| Zusammenfassung: | Wagner et al tested the hypothesis that the renin-angiotensin system (RAS) protects the contractile function of the myocardium against the damaging effect of hypoxia-reoxygenation. For this purpose, the contractility of isolated papillary muscles from wild-type rats and from rats expressing human renin and angiotensinogen as transgenes was compared. |
