Molecular Sensors for Cardiovascular Homeostasis

Molecular Sensors for Cardiovascular Homeostasis Donna H. Wang, MD, FAHA, FAAN Biological homeostasis is maintained via intact function of an array of molecules detecting changes of microenvironments inside and outside of the biological system. These molecules including cell membrane proteins and io...
