The cardiac expression of Mas receptor is responsive to different physiological and pathological stimuli
- Published 2012 in Peptides
Abstract
The Mas protooncogene encodes a G protein-coupled receptor that has been described as a functional receptor for the cardioprotective fragment of the renin-angiotensin system (RAS), Angiotensin (Ang)-(1-7). The aim of this current study was to evaluate the responsiveness of Mas expression in hearts during different physiological and pathological conditions… (More)
