Angiotensin II and tumour necrosis factor α as mediators of ATP-dependent potassium channel remodelling in post-infarction heart failure [PDF]
, 2017 Aims Angiotensin II (Ang II) and tumour necrosis factor α (TNFα) are involved in the progression from compensated hypertrophy to heart failure. Here, we test their role in the remodelling of ATP-dependent potassium channel (KATP) in heart failure ...
