ANG-(1-7) reduces ANG II-induced insulin resistance by enhancing Akt phosphorylation via a Mas receptor-dependent mechanism in rat skeletal muscle
The nonapeptide angiotensin II (ANG II) induces vasoconstriction via the ANG II type I receptor, while its splice product ANG-(1-7) elicits an antihypertensive effect via the Mas receptor. Although a critical role of ANG II in the etiology of skeletal muscle insulin resistance is well documented, th...
