Pathways involving perivascular adipose tissue (PVAT) inflammation in hypertension. Ang II: angiotensin II; AT1R: angiotensin II type 1 receptor; C3: component 3; CCR: CC chemokine receptor; CCL: CC chemokine ligand; ET-1: endothelin-1; IL: interleukin; MCP-1: monocyte chemoattractant protein-1; NOX: NADPH oxidase; RAAS: renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system; ROS: reactive oxygen species.
