Hepatocyte Angiotensinogen Deletion Protects Against Diet-induced Metabolic Disorders in Mice Under Thermoneutral Conditions

Angiotensinogen (AGT) deletion in hepatocytes reduces Western diet-induced adiposity and hepatic steatosis in mice maintained under conventional room-temperature (RT) housing.

Angiotensinogen (AGT) deletion in hepatocytes reduces Western diet-induced adiposity and hepatic steatosis in mice maintained under conventional room-temperature (RT) housing. Given the high metabolic activity of mice, this temperature imposes adaptive metabolic responses in…
