Popis: Recent studies suggest that endothelial-mesenchymal transition (EndMT) as a link between endoplasmic reticulum stress (ER stress) and fibrosis. We previous found that urotensin II (UII) could promote EndMT in cardiac microvascular endothelial cells of rats. Therefore, in the present study, we
