Angiotensin II–Induced Vascular Dysfunction Depends on Interferon-γ–Driven Immune Cell Recruitment and Mutual Activation of Monocytes and NK-Cells

Abstract

We provide first evidence that NK-cells play an essential role in ATII-induced vascular dysfunction. In addition, we disclose the T-bet-IFN-γ pathway and mutual monocyte-NK-cell activation as potential therapeutic targets in cardiovascular disease.
