Figure 1 Overview of angiotensin receptor blockers actions on the liver. ARBs reduce hepatic steatosis through favored beta-oxidation and reduced insulin resistance. Concomitantly, it indirectly enhances Mas receptor activity, eliciting hepatoprotective effects by low TGF-beta1 expression, which limits hepatic stellate cells activation and prevents liver fibrosis. ARBs: Angiotensin receptor blockers; TGF-beta1: Transforming growth factor-beta 1.
