Neuroendocrine characterization and anorexigenic effects of telmisartan in diet- and glitazone-induced weight gain

Aubert, Gregory ; Burnier, Michel ; Dulloo, Abdul G. ; Perregaux, Christine ; Mazzolai, Lucia ; Pralong, François ; Zanchi, Anne

In: Metabolism - Clinical and Experimental, 2010, vol. 59, no. 1, p. 25-32

Telmisartan is an angiotensin II receptor blocker with peroxisome proliferator–activated receptor–γ agonistic properties. Telmisartan prevents weight gain and decreases food intake in models of obesity and in glitazone-treated rodents. This study further investigates the influence of telmisartan and pioglitazone and their association on weight gain and body composition by examining...

Telmisartan prevents the glitazone-induced weight gain without interfering with its insulin-sensitizing properties

Zanchi, Anne ; Dulloo, Abdul G. ; Perregaux, Christine ; Montani, Jean-Pierre ; Burnier, Michel

Glitazones are peroxisome proliferator-activated receptor (PPAR)-Γ agonists with powerful insulin-sensitizing properties. They promote the development of metabolically active adipocytes that can lead to a substantial gain in fat mass. Telmisartan is an ANG II type 1 receptor antagonist with partial PPAR-Γ agonistic properties. Recently, telmisartan has been reported to prevent weight gain and...
