Abstract
Angiotensin is an important regulator of blood pressure and exerts both pressor actions and influences growth in the cardiovascular system via the AT[SUB1] receptor. This review describes a number of signalling mechanisms involved in vasoconstriction and growth in response to AT[SUB1] receptor activation in vascular smooth muscle. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
