Angiotensin II type 1 receptor blockers.
In the 1970s, a series of observations demonstrated that angiotensin II has deleterious effects on the heart and kidney and that patients with high levels of plasma renin activity are at a higher risk of developing stroke or myocardial infarction than those with low plasma renin activity.1,2 Thereafter, the development of pharmacological probes that block the renin-angiotensin system helped def...
متن کاملEffect of angiotensin II type 1 receptor blockade on cardiac remodeling in angiotensin II type 2 receptor null mice.
To clarify the possible involvement of uninhibited angiotensin II (Ang II) type 2 (AT(2)) receptor stimulation in the effects of an Ang II type 1 (AT(1)) receptor blocker, valsartan, we examined the cardiovascular remodeling induced by aortic banding with the use of wild-type (Agtr2+) and AT(2) receptor null (Agtr2-) mice. Aortic banding caused cardiac hypertrophy in Agtr2+ and Agtr2- mice to a...
متن کاملRenal angiotensin type 2 receptors mediate natriuresis via angiotensin III in the angiotensin II type 1 receptor-blocked rat.
Whereas angiotensin (Ang) II is the major effector peptide of the renin-angiotensin system, its metabolite, des-aspartyl1-Ang II (Ang III), may also have biologic activity. We investigated the effects of renal interstitial (RI) administration of candesartan (CAND), a specific Ang II type 1 receptor (AT1) blocker, with and without coinfusion of PD-123319 (PD), a specific Ang II type 2 receptor (...
متن کاملAngiotensin II type 2 receptor-bradykinin B2 receptor functional heterodimerization.
Angiotensin II type 2 (AT2R) or bradykinin B2 (B2R) receptor activation enhances NO production. Recently, we demonstrated enhancement of NO production when AT2R and B2R are simultaneously activated in vivo. However, the mechanism involved in this enhancement is unknown. Using confocal fluorescence resonance energy transfer microscopy, we report the distance between the AT2R and B2R in PC12W cel...
متن کاملEpidermal growth factor-enhanced human angiotensin II type 1 receptor.
The human angiotensin II type 1 (AT1) receptor gene was isolated and its promoter function analyzed by deletion mutant promoter/luciferase constructs in transfected Cos 7 cells. We found that epidermal growth factor enhanced the human AT1 promoter activity twofold to threefold. The region between -227 and -366 bp from the 5' end of the cDNA was mapped for a base sequence responsive to the epide...
