Abstract
|
:
|
Covers aspects such as intracellular signaling, regulation of cell volume in the failing heart, the presence of an intracrine renin angiotensin system, and the influence of prorenin/renin, angiotensin II, angiotensin (1-7) and aldosterone. This book offers a review of the topics involving the renin angiotensin system and cardiovascular disease.
