1 15939809 The present study demonstrates that AT2R activation and certain ARBs induce adiponectin in adipocytes, which was associated with an improvement of parameters of insulin sensitivity in vivo.
2 15939809 ARB-induced adiponectin stimulation is likely to be mediated via PPARgamma activation involving a post-transcriptional mechanism.
3 16290123 However, by analysis segregated with ACE gene polymorphism, ARB significantly decreased transforming growth factor-beta1 (TGF-beta) compared to ACEI in patients with the I/I genotype but not in patients with the D/I+D/D genotype.
4 16290123 We suggest that in I/I patients, TGF-beta was reduced by ARB via effects on (ATII) type 2 receptors (AT2).
5 16290123 In our experiments, the effect of ARB on TGF-beta reduction was only detected by segregation of ACE genotypes.
6 17487263 This project assesses the treatment role with insulin and (or) angiotensin II receptor subtype-1 (AT1-R) blocker (ARB) on insulin receptor and endothelin-1 receptor subtype (ETA-R and ETB-R) regulation in rat hearts suffering from insulin-dependent diabetes mellitus (IDDM).
7 18829990 In the present study, we determined whether hyperglycemia activates the cardiac intracellular renin-Ang system (RAS) in vivo and whether ARBs, ACE, or renin inhibitors block synthesis and effects of intracellular Ang II (iAng II).
8 18829990 Diabetic rats were treated with insulin, candesartan (ARB), benazepril (ACE inhibitor), or aliskiren (renin inhibitor).
9 18829990 Renin inhibition has a more pronounced effect than ARBs and ACE inhibitors on these diabetes complications and may be clinically more efficacious.
10 19665690 Because angiotensin II (Ang II) inhibits sensory neuron activation by interacting with Ang II type 1 (AT(1)) receptors, it is possible that AT(1) receptor blockers (ARBs) increase IGF-I production in SHRs.
11 19453256 We evaluated sex differences in the prospective association between adiponectin with BMD, bone loss, and fractures.
12 21143168 In this paper, I describe the effects of ARBs on adiponectin, blood pressure, and fatty liver.
13 21143168 Several clinical studies have reported that ARBs elevate adiponectin.
14 20948237 These data suggest that the addition of 1,25(OH)(2)D(3) to therapy with ARB further reduced proteinuria by suppressing the compensatory increase in renin expression in type 2 diabetic nephropathy.
