Assessment of left ventricular geometrical patterns and function among hypertensive patients at a tertiary hospital, Northern Tanzania

BMC Cardiovascular Disorders, 2012
Background With hypertension, the cardiovascular system changes to adapt to the varying neuro-humoral and hemodynamic changes and this may lead to the development of different left ventricular geometric patterns, each carrying a different risk profile ...

1,25(OH)2 vitamin D3, and retinoic acid antagonize endothelin-stimulated hypertrophy of neonatal rat cardiac myocytes.

, 1996
1,25 (OH)(2) Vitamin D-3 (VD3) and retinoic acid (RA) function as ligands for nuclear receptors which regulate transcription, Though the cardiovascular system is not thought to represent a classical target for these ligands, it is clear that both cardiac
