The potential significance of the cardiac renin-angiotensin system is indicated by the beneficial effects of angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors in the treatment of congestive heart failure and regional myocardial ischemia. In addition, it has become clear that the cardiac renin-angiotensin system may contribute to post-myocardial infarction ventricular remodelling. Solid evidence for the existence of the cardiac renin-angiotensin system has resulted in an increase of useful information regarding the complex regulatory ...

The potential significance of the cardiac renin-angiotensin system is indicated by the beneficial effects of angiotensin converting enzyme inhibitors in the treatment of congestive heart failure and regional myocardial ischemia. In addition, it has become clear that the cardiac renin-angiotensin system may contribute to post-myocardial infarction ventricular remodelling. Solid evidence for the existence of the cardiac renin-angiotensin system has resulted in an increase of useful information regarding the complex regulatory interactions between haemodynamic parameters and the expression of components of this system in physiological and pathological states. This book details the cardiac renin-angiotensin system and its importance as the key to new therapeutic strategies. It is aimed at the physician who is involved with the treatment of hypertension or congestive heart failure.
