Lack of weight gain after angiotensin <scp>AT</scp>₁ receptor blockade in diet‐induced obesity is partly mediated by an angiotensin‐(1–7)/<scp>M</scp>as‐dependent pathway

Abstract

Angiotensin-(1-7) regulated food intake and body weight and contributed to the weight loss after AT1 receptor blockade. Angiotensin-(1-7)-like agonists may be drug candidates for treating obesity.
