Relaxin inhibits cardiac fibrosis and endothelial–mesenchymal transition via the Notch pathway

BACKGROUND: Relaxin (RLX) can prevent cardiac fibrosis. We aimed to investigate the possible mechanism and signal transduction pathway of RLX inhibiting cardiac fibrosis. METHODS: Isoproterenol (5 mg·kg(−1)·d(−1)) was used to establish the cardiac fibrosis model in rats, which were administered RLX....
