Adipocyte‐Specific Enhancement of Angiotensin II Type 1 Receptor‐Associated Protein Ameliorates Diet‐Induced Visceral Obesity and Insulin Resistance
Background The renin–angiotensin system has a pivotal role in the pathophysiology of visceral obesity. Angiotensin II type 1 receptor (AT1R) is a major player in the signal transduction of the renin–angiotensin system, and the overactivation of this signaling contributes to the progression of viscer...
