Abstract:Background: Cardiac hypertrophy and fibrosis are major pathological manifestations observed in left ventricular remodeling induced by Angiotensin II (AngII). Concerning the fact that low‐intensity pulsed ultrasound (LIPUS) has been reported to improve cardiac dysfunction and myocardial fibrosis in myocardial infarction (MI) through mechanotransductionanditsdownstream pathways, we aimed to investigate whether LIPUS could also exert a protective effect on ameliorating AngII-induced cardiac hypertrophy and fibros… Show more
