Abstract
Renin-angiotensin system blockade improves glucose intolerance and insulin resistance, which contribute to the development of metabolic syndrome. However, the contribution of impaired insulin secretion to the pathogenesis of metabolic syndrome is not well defined. To assess the contributions of angiotensin receptor type 1 (AT₁) activation and high glucose intake on pancreatic function and their effects on insulin signaling in skeletal muscle and...
