Background Left ventricular hypertrophy is an adaptive process to increased loading of the
left ventricle. This condition becomes pathologic with impaired myocardial function if the …

In hypertensive heart disease, reactive myocardial fibrosis represents as an excessive

A collagen network, composed largely of type I and III fibrillar collagens, is found in the
extracellular space of the myocardium. This network has multiple functions which includes a …

In chronic heart failure, the inter-relationship of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system
(RAAS) and cardiac growth is of primary clinical interest. In the pressure or volume …
