Signaling transduction mechanisms mediating biological actions of the vascular endothelial growth factor family.

abstract：BACKGROUND:We, and others, have previously reported a strong correlation between increased inter-ventricular dispersion of repolarization and the occurrence of fatal arrhythmia in animal models of CHF. The existence of this and other such distinct electrophysiologic phenotypes in right (RV) vs. left ventricles (LV) cou...
