| 1 | In addition, because the hexosamine biosynthetic pathway is considered to function as a biochemical sensor of intracellular nutrient availability, we hypothesized that activation of this pathway would acutely mediate in vivo the induction of AGT gene expression in fat and liver. | Hexosamines | angiotensinogen | Rattus norvegicus |
| 2 | Our results support the hypothesis that physiological nutrient "pulses" may acutely induce AGT gene expression in both adipose tissue and liver through the activation of the hexosamine biosynthetic pathway. | Hexosamines | angiotensinogen | Rattus norvegicus |
