Angiotensin-(1-7) attenuates the development of heart failure after myocardial infarction in rats.

abstract：BACKGROUND:Endogenous adenosine can protect the overloaded heart against the development of hypertrophy and heart failure, but the contribution of A(1) receptors (A(1)R) and A(3) receptors (A(3)R) is not known. METHODS AND RESULTS:To test the hypothesis that A(1)R and A(3)R can protect the heart against systolic overl...
