In addition, the LPN/APN ratio was calculated. Results:SBP, homeostasis model assessment of insulin resistance (HOMA-IR), LPN concentration, adipose LPN mRNA expression level, and the LPN/APN ratio increased (P<0.05) and APN concentration and adipose APN mRNA expression level decreased (P<0.05) in SHR rats.IRB decreased SBP, HOMA-IR, serum LPN, adipose LPN mRNA expression, and the LPN/APN ratio and increased serum APN and adipose APN mRNA expression. The gene discussed is ANPEP; the disease is Insulin resistance.
