Bone Marrow Origin of Coronary Artery Diseases: The Impact of the Local Renin-Angiotensin System

Ugur Nadir Karakulak et al. Acta Cardiol Sin. 2022 Jan.

Abstract

The renin-angiotensin system (RAS) has both important systemic circulatory and local effects. The effects of local cardiac RAS on the cardiovascular system have been increasingly researched. In this study, we review the relationship between local bone marrow and local cardiac RAS and their impacts on atherosclerosis.

Keywords: Bone marrow; Coronary artery disease; Renin-angiotensin system.
