Angiotensin II signaling in human preadipose cells: participation of ERK1,2-dependent modulation of Akt.

The renin-angiotensin system expressed in adipose tissue has been implicated in the modulation of adipocyte formation, glucose metabolism, triglyceride accumulation, lipolysis, and the onset of the adverse metabolic consequences of obesity. As we investigated angiotensin II signal transduction mecha...
