Beneficial Effects of Angiotensin-(1-7) on CD34+ Cells From Patients With Heart Failure.

Abstract excerpt

The dysfunctional nature of CD34 cells from patients with heart failure (HF) may make them unsuitable for autologous stem-cell therapy. In view of evidence that the vasoprotective axis of the renin-angiotensin system (RAS) improves CD34 cell functions, we hypothesized that CD34 cells from patients with HF will be dysfunctional and that angiotensin-(1-7) [Ang-(1-7)] would improve their function. Peripheral blood...
