The Local Cardiac Renin-Angiotensin Aldosterone System

The Local Cardiac Renin-Angiotensin Aldosterone System, Second Edition updates new findings on the local renin-angiotensin systems (RAS) with a focus on the local RAASs of the cardiovascular system and kidney. Edward D. Frohlich, M.D., M.A.C.P, F.A.C.C., is the Alton Ochsner Distinguished Scientist...
