Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: The renin-angiotensin system (RAS) plays a role in the pathogenesis of metabolic diseases. This system was recently found to be completely expressed in human adipose tissue. Especially angiotensin II, the active component of RAS, may affect adipogenesis and adipocyte metabolism. We examined whether obese and non-obese subjects differ from angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) genotype distribution, and...
