1440Anti-inflammatory adipokine, omentin, attenuates angiotensin II-induced abdominal aortic aneurysm formation in apolipoprotein-E knockout mice
Abstract
Background Abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) is an increasing and life-threatening disease. Obesity is associated with an increased risk of AAA. Omentin is a circulating adipokine, which is downregulated by obesity. Recently we have demonstrated that omentin is an anti-inflammatory adipokine that prevents the development of atherosclerosis in apolipoprotein-E knockout (apoE-KO) mice. Here we examined whether omentin could modulate angiotensin...
