Beta-adrenoceptor stimulation of alveolar fluid clearance is increased in rats with heart failure

The alveolar epithelium plays a critical role in resolving pulmonary edema. We thus hypothesized that its function might be upregulated in rats with heart failure, a condition that severely challenges the lung's ability to maintain fluid balance. Heart failure was induced by left coronary arter...
