Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: Sepsis-induced cardiomyopathy (SIC) has high mortality due to uncontrolled cardiac inflammation and macrophage-mediated mitochondrial damage. The Ang-(1–7)/Mas receptor (MasR) axis exhibits anti-inflammatory effects, but its role in modulating macrophage phenotypes in SIC remains unclear. This study aimed to determine if MasR activation confers cardioprotective effects in SIC via the macrophage...
