Adipocytes express all components of the renin-angiotensin system, and the renin-angiotensin system is involved in obesity and insulin resistance. Circulating angiotensin II (Ang II) is detectable in blood, but its significance in human obesity remains unknown. The aim of this study was to investigate plasma Ang II in obese patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2D) and the change during weight loss. Fifty Japanese obese subjects with T2D (body weight, 75.0 +/- 14.1 kg; body mass index, 29.1 +/- 3.7 kg/m(2); visceral fat area [VFA], 169.3 +/- 54.3 cm(2); hemoglobin A(1c), 7.6% +/- 1.5%) were enrolled. The subjects were prescribed a diet of daily caloric intake of 20 kcal/kg for 24 weeks. Plasma Ang II was measured by radioimmunoassay. Leptin, adiponectin, and lipoprotein lipase mass in preheparin serum were also measured as adipocyte-derived factors. After 24 weeks of weight reduction diet, the mean body weight, VFA, and hemoglobin A(1c) decreased significantly by 2.3%, 7.0%, and 8.3%, respectively. The mean plasma Ang II decreased by 24% (P < .0001) and correlated with body weight both at baseline (r = 0.425, P = .0018) and at 24 weeks (r = 0.332, P = .0181). The change in Ang II correlated with changes in body weight (r = 0.335, P = .0167) and VFA (r = 0.329, P = .0191). The change in Ang II also correlated positively with change in leptin (r = 0.348, P = .0127) and tended to correlate negatively with change in lipoprotein lipase mass in preheparin serum (r = -0.260, P = .0683), which is a marker of insulin sensitivity. Plasma Ang II is associated with body weight, decreases during weight loss, and is associated with markers of insulin resistance in obese subjects with T2D.

UI MeSH Term Description Entries
D007333 Insulin Resistance Diminished effectiveness of INSULIN in lowering blood sugar levels: requiring the use of 200 units or more of insulin per day to prevent HYPERGLYCEMIA or KETOSIS. Insulin Sensitivity,Resistance, Insulin,Sensitivity, Insulin
D008071 Lipoprotein Lipase An enzyme of the hydrolase class that catalyzes the reaction of triacylglycerol and water to yield diacylglycerol and a fatty acid anion. The enzyme hydrolyzes triacylglycerols in chylomicrons, very-low-density lipoproteins, low-density lipoproteins, and diacylglycerols. It occurs on capillary endothelial surfaces, especially in mammary, muscle, and adipose tissue. Genetic deficiency of the enzyme causes familial hyperlipoproteinemia Type I.

D008875 Middle Aged An adult aged 45 - 64 years. Middle Age
D009765 Obesity A status with BODY WEIGHT that is grossly above the recommended standards, usually due to accumulation of excess FATS in the body. The standards may vary with age, sex, genetic or cultural background. In the BODY MASS INDEX, a BMI greater than 30.0 kg/m2 is considered obese, and a BMI greater than 40.0 kg/m2 is considered morbidly obese (MORBID OBESITY).

D003924 Diabetes Mellitus, Type 2 A subclass of DIABETES MELLITUS that is not INSULIN-responsive or dependent (NIDDM). It is characterized initially by INSULIN RESISTANCE and HYPERINSULINEMIA; and eventually by GLUCOSE INTOLERANCE; HYPERGLYCEMIA; and overt diabetes. Type II diabetes mellitus is no longer considered a disease exclusively found in adults. Patients seldom develop KETOSIS but often exhibit OBESITY.

D006442 Glycated Hemoglobin Products of non-enzymatic reactions between GLUCOSE and HEMOGLOBIN (occurring as a minor fraction of the hemoglobin of ERYTHROCYTES.) It generally refers to glycated HEMOGLOBIN A. Hemoglobin A1c (Hb A1c) is hemoglobin A with GLYCATION on a terminal VALINE of the beta chain. Glycated hemoglobin A is used as an index of the average blood sugar level over a lifetime of erythrocytes.
