Pathophysiological Mapping of Experimental Heart Failure: Left and Right Ventricular Remodeling in Transverse Aortic Constriction Is Temporally, Kinetically and Structurally Distinct
A growing proportion of heart failure (HF) patients present with impairments in both ventricles. Experimental pressure-overload (i.e., transverse aortic constriction, TAC) induces left ventricle (LV) hypertrophy and failure, as well as right ventricle (RV) dysfunction. However, little is known about...
