DEVELOPMENT OF EXPERIMENTAL MODELS
OF CARDIAC AND RENAL DISEASES
•Post-Ischemic Heart Failure (Coronary ligation)
(Pons et al., Clin. Exp. Physiol. Pharmacol., 2003; J. Cardiovasc.
Pharmacol., 2003; Richer et al., Circulation, Abstract, 2003)
•Myocardial Ischemia-Reperfusion Injury (reversible coronary oclusion)
(Richer et al., FASEB J, 2005)
•Renovascular Hypertension (clip on renal artery)
•Experimental Aldosterone-induced Cardiac Remodeling
•Insulinoprive Diabetes (Streptozotocin)
(Huang et al., PNAS, 2003)
