Research Abstract |
Recent clinical studies have indicated that dysregulation of vascular hormones would cause metabolic diseases. The present study demonstrated that natriuretic peptides and angiotensin II could modulate oxygen consumption by regulating muscle mitochondria. The findings suggest significant roles for vascular hormones as modulators of both oxygen supply and consumption, which are essential for the progression of metabolic syndrome and aging.
