Cardioprotective effects of angiotensin II type 1 receptor blockade with candesartan after reperfused myocardial infarction: role of angiotensin II type 2 receptor

To determine whether angiotensin II (Ang II) type 2 (AT2)-receptor activation associated with cardioprotection induced by Ang II type 1 (AT1)-receptor blockade during ischaemia-reperfusion (IR) might be reflected in increased AT 2-receptor, IP3-(1,4,5- inositol trisphosphate type 2) receptor and PKC...
