Effect of ACE inhibition on pressor, renal vascular, and adrenal responses to infusion of angiotensin I in normal subjects eating a low-salt diet.

abstract：:The protein chemerin (tazarotene-induced gene, TIG2; RARRES2) is a relatively new adipokine. Many studies support that circulating chemerin levels associate strongly and positively with body mass index, visceral fat, and blood pressure. Here, we focus on the specific relationship of chemerin and blood pressure with th...
