Angiotensin II Promotes the Phenotypic Transition of c-Kit+ Cardiac Interstitial Cells to Myofibroblasts Through Collagen Receptor Discoidin Domain Receptor 2
{{output}}
Angiotensin II (Ang II), a potent profibrotic stimulus, exhibits pleiotropic effects on cardiac cells. The fate of c-Kit+ cells in an Ang II-elevated injured myocardium remains poorly defined. This study investigated, in vitro, the effect of Ang II on the phen... ...
