May enhance insulin sensitivity independent of blood flow in healthy men; leaves open relevance to hypertension or diabetes.
Does low-dose angiotensin II infusion alter glucose disposal rate and calf blood flow in healthy men during euglycemic hyperinsulinemia?
Low-dose angiotensin II stimulates insulin-mediated glucose uptake in healthy men, an effect that appears independent of changes in blood flow.
Widgren et al. (1993) studied this question.
