Abstract

As inadequate perfusion has emerged as a key determinant of adipose tissue dysfunction in obesity, interest has grown regarding possible pharmacological interventions to prevent this process. Mirabegron has proved to improve insulin sensitivity and glucose homeostasis in obese humans via stimulation of βSmall arteries (116-734 μm) isolated from visceral adipose tissue were studied ex vivo in a wire myograph. After vessels had been contracted, changes in vascular tone in response to mirabegron were determined under different conditions.Mirabegron did not elicit vasorelaxation in vessels contracted with U46619 or high-KMirabegron induces endothelium-independent vasorelaxation in arteries from visceral adipose tissue, likely through antagonism of α
