Involvement of type 1 angiontensin II receptor (AT1) in cardiovascular changes induced by chronic emotional stress: comparison between homotypic and heterotypic stressors.

Involvement of type 1 angiontensin II receptor (AT1) in cardiovascular changes induced by chronic emotional stress: comparison between homotypic and heterotypic stressors.

Consistent evidence has shown an important role of emotional stress in pathogenesis of cardiovascular diseases. Additionally, studies in animal models have demonstrated that daily exposure to different stressor (heterotypic stressor) evokes more severe changes than those resulting from repeated expo...
