Angiotensin-(1–7) infusion is associated with increased blood pressure and adverse cardiac remodelling in rats with subtotal nephrectomy

ACE (angiotensin-converting enzyme) 2 is expressed in the heart and kidney and metabolizes Ang (angiotensin) II to Ang-(1–7) a peptide that acts via the Ang-(1–7) or mas receptor. The aim of the present study was to assess the effect of Ang-(1–7) on blood pressure and cardiac remodelling in a rat mo...
