At the same time, systemic delivery of renalase attenuated hypertension, cardiomyocytes hypertrophy and cardiac interstitial fibrosis; prevented cardiac remodelling through inhibition of pro‐fibrotic genes expression and phosphorylation of extracellular signal‐regulated kinase (ERK)‐1/2. The gene discussed is MAPK3; the disease is Interstitial cardiac fibrosis.
