“…Interestingly, our current study observed that the increased renal COX-2 expression in diabetic rats was markedly inhibited by the combined therapy of the spironolactone and candesartan supporting the important protective role of MR blockade in diabetes (Takata et al, 2012).…”

“…212 Spironolactone ameliorates insulin resistance 213 ; and aldosterone contributes to the microvascular complications of diabetes. 214,215 Leptin also plays a central role in immune responses and inflammation. 216 The adipokine stimulates the proliferation of monocytes and their production of proinflammatory cytokines, and it fuels the activation of T cells.…”

“…Finally, adipocytes are an important source of aldosterone, 209 and obesity is characterized by hyperaldosteronism 210 ; increased levels of aldosterone precede the development of the metabolic syndrome 211 and predict the development of diabetes 212 .
