This study examines sex-related differences in vascular remodeling in sodium-overloaded normotensive mice, finding distinct changes in elastic lamellae and collagen deposition between males and females.

This study shows that low-dose angiotensin II induces early inflammatory responses in cardiac arteries of normotensive mice, primarily via AT1 receptors, with AT2 receptors modulating IL-1β production.
