Abstract
Angiotensin II is a peptide hormone with strong vasoconstrictive action, and recent reports have shown that Angiotensin II receptor type 1 antagonists (angiotensin II receptor blockers) also improve glucose metabolism. The angiotensin II receptor blocker telmisartan acts as an agonistic ligand of the peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor gamma (PPARγ). In this study, we investigated the effects of telmisartan on glucose uptake and insulin...
