Pollutant Particles Produce Vasoconstriction and Enhance MAPK Signaling via Angiotensin Type I Receptor

Exposure to particulate matter (PM) is associated with acute cardiovascular mortality and morbidity, but the mechanisms are not entirely clear. In this study, we hypothesized that PM may activate the angiotensin type 1 receptor (AT(1)R), a G protein-coupled receptor that regulates inflammation and v...
