Macrophage-mediated regulation of catecholamines in sympathetic neural remodeling after myocardial infarction.

abstract：:We have recently gained evidence that segmental coronary microvascular diameters, and therefore resistances, are controlled by myogenic and endothelial responses to pressure and flow. Furthermore, intact heart studies are demonstrating that these mechanisms may interact importantly with the metabolic mechanisms primar...
