Popis: | The renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system has been causally implicated in obesity-associated hypertension. We studied the influence of obesity and weight reduction on the circulating and adipose tissue renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system in menopausal women. Blood samples were analyzed for angiotensinogen, renin, aldosterone, angiotensin-converting enzyme activity, and angiotensin II. In adipose tissue biopsy samples, we analyzed angiotensinogen, renin, renin-receptor, angiotensin-converting enzyme, and angiotensin II type-1 receptor gene expression. Obese women (n=19) had higher circulating angiotensinogen, renin, aldosterone, and angiotensin-converting enzyme than lean women (n=19), and lower angiotensinogen gene expression in adipose tissue. Seventeen women successfully participated in a weight reduction protocol over 13 weeks to reduce daily caloric intake by 600 kcal. Body weight was reduced by −5%, as were angiotensinogen levels by −27%, renin by −43%, aldosterone by −31%, angiotensin-converting enzyme activity by −12%, and angiotensinogen expression by −20% in adipose tissue (all P r =0.74; P |
