Reciprocal interaction between macrophages and T cells stimulates IFN-γ and MCP-1 production in Ang II-induced cardiac inflammation and fibrosis.

Reciprocal interaction between macrophages and T cells stimulates IFN-γ and MCP-1 production in Ang II-induced cardiac inflammation and fibrosis.

BACKGROUND: The inflammatory response plays a critical role in hypertension-induced cardiac remodeling. We aimed to study how interaction among inflammatory cells causes inflammatory responses in the process of hypertensive cardiac fibrosis. METHODOLOGY/PRINCIPAL FINDINGS: Infusion of angiotensin II...
