Physiology and Pathophysiology of the Adipose Tissue Renin-Angiotensin System
Abstract
Abstract—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 support of the notion that adipose tissue, besides other endocrine functions, also hosts a local renin-angiotensin system. In the first part of this review, we describe the components of the adipose tissue renin-angiotensin system in human and rodent animal models with respect to regulation of angiotensinogen expression and secretion, formation of angiotensin peptides, and the existence of angiotensin II receptors. In the second part, we describe the role of the adipose tissue renin-angiotensin system in the process of adipogenic differentiation and in the regulation of body weight. We also detail the differential regulation of the adipose tissue renin-angiotensin system in obesity and hypertension and thereby also speculate on its possible role in the development of obesity-associated hypertension. Although some findings on the adipose tissue renin-angiotensin system appear to be confusing, its involvement in the physiology and pathophysiology of adipose tissue has been confirmed by several functional studies. Nevertheless, future studies with more carefully described phenotypes are necessary to conclude whether obesity (by stimulation of adipogenic differentiation) and hypertension are associated with changes of renin-angiotensin system activity in adipose tissue. If so, the physiological relevance of this system in animal models and humans may warrant further interest.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
