Abstract excerpt
BACKGROUND: There is evidence that patients with chronic congestive heart failure have endothelial cell-related abnormalities of the peripheral circulation and the coronary microvasculature. For that reason, we have studied the phenotypic expression of endothelial cells in hearts of patients with congestive heart failure. METHODS AND RESULTS: We studied cardiac explants (n = 19) and autopsy hearts (n = 5) of...
