The angiotensin II type 2 receptor activates flow-mediated outward remodelling through T cells-dependent interleukin-17 production.

abstract：ABSTRACT:Sepsis accounts for nearly 700 000 deaths in Europe annually and is caused by an overwhelming host response to infection resulting in organ failure. The endothelium is an active contributor to sepsis and as such represents a major target for therapy. During sepsis, endothelial cells amplify the immune response...
