AdipoR1/APPL1 potentiates the protective effects of globular adiponectin on angiotensin II-induced cardiac hypertrophy and fibrosis in neonatal rat atrial myocytes and fibroblasts.

AdipoR1/APPL1 potentiates the protective effects of globular adiponectin on angiotensin II-induced cardiac hypertrophy and fibrosis in neonatal rat atrial myocytes and fibroblasts.

Atrial hypertrophy and fibrosis are essential pathological features of atrial fibrillation. Recently, adiponectin has become a protein of interest due to its beneficial effects on cardiovascular diseases. However, the molecular mechanism of atrial structural remodeling and signaling pathways evoked...
