High Angiotensin II Responsiveness is Associated with Decreased Endothelium-Dependent Relaxation in Human Arteries

Introduction. Animal studies demonstrated an interaction between angiotensin II (Ang II) responsiveness and endothelium-dependent relaxation (EDR). However, this relation has not been well described in humans. Therefore, we investigated the relation between Ang II responsiveness and EDR in isolated...
