Renin dynamics in adipose tissue: adipose tissue control of local renin concentrations.
The renin-angiotensin system (RAS) has been implicated in a variety of adipose tissue functions, including tissue growth, differentiation, metabolism, and inflammation. Although expression of all components necessary for a locally derived adipose tissue RAS has been demonstrated within adipose tissue, independence of local adipose RAS component concentrations from corresponding plasma RAS fluct...
متن کاملRenin receptor expression in human adipose tissue.
Adipose tissue synthesizes all components of the renin-angiotensin system. The renin receptor (RenR) is able, on renin binding, to increase its efficiency to generate angiotensin I from angiotensinogen. We demonstrate that RenR is specifically synthesized in the stromal portion of human adipose tissue in both isolated interadipocyte stromal cells and in stromal areas. RenR is expressed at the p...
متن کاملPhysiology and pathophysiology of the adipose tissue renin-angiotensin system.
The renin-angiotensin system has long been recognized as an important regulator of systemic blood pressure and renal electrolyte homeostasis, and local renin-angiotensin systems have also been implicated in pathological changes of organ structure and function by modulation of gene expression, growth, fibrosis, and inflammatory response. Recently, substantial data have been accumulated in suppor...
متن کاملInfluence of salt intake on renin-angiotensin and natriuretic peptide system genes in human adipose tissue.
We tested the hypothesis that changes in sodium intake modulate adipose-tissue renin-angiotensin and natriuretic peptide system gene expression in humans. We studied 9 healthy young men in a metabolic ward at constant room temperature, humidity, and water, potassium, and calcium intake. Subjects were submitted to 4 different periods of sodium intake, and blood samples, microdialysis samples (in...
متن کاملAdipose tissue in control of metabolism.
Adipose tissue plays a central role in regulating whole-body energy and glucose homeostasis through its subtle functions at both organ and systemic levels. On one hand, adipose tissue stores energy in the form of lipid and controls the lipid mobilization and distribution in the body. On the other hand, adipose tissue acts as an endocrine organ and produces numerous bioactive factors such as adi...
