Angiotensin II acts through the angiotensin 1a receptor to upregulate pendrin.
Pendrin is an anion exchanger expressed in the apical regions of B and non-A, non-B intercalated cells. Since angiotensin II increases pendrin-mediated Cl(-) absorption in vitro, we asked whether angiotensin II increases pendrin expression in vivo and whether angiotensin-induced hypertension is pendrin dependent. While blood pressure was similar in pendrin null and wild-type mice under basal co...
متن کاملEnhanced erythropoiesis mediated by activation of the renin-angiotensin system via angiotensin II type 1a receptor.
Although clinical and experimental studies have long suggested a role for the renin-angiotensin system (RAS) in the regulation of erythropoiesis, the molecular basis of this role has not been well understood. We report here that transgenic mice carrying both the human renin and human angiotensinogen genes displayed persistent erythrocytosis as well as hypertension. To identify the receptor mole...
متن کاملAngiotensin II type 1a receptor mediates doxorubicin-induced cardiomyopathy.
Although the serious cardiotoxicity of doxorubicin (DOX), a useful chemotherapeutic agent, limits the use of this agent, the mechanism of DOX-induced cardiomyopathy remains unclear. Since accumulating evidence suggests that activation of the renin-angiotensin system is involved in the development of various types of cardiovascular remodeling, we examined the role of angiotensin II (Ang II) in D...
متن کاملAngiotensin II type 2 receptor gene transfer downregulates angiotensin II type 1a receptor in vascular smooth muscle cells.
Two distinct subtypes of angiotensin (Ang) II receptors, type 1 (AT(1)) and type 2 (AT(2)), have been identified. Vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) usually express AT(1) receptor. To elucidate the direct effects of the AT(2) receptor on the AT(1) receptor in VSMCs, we transfected AT(2) receptor gene into cultured rat VSMCs. Overexpression of AT(2) receptor significantly decreased expression ...
متن کاملMechanical stretch and angiotensin II differentially upregulate the renin-angiotensin system in cardiac myocytes In vitro.
Pressure overload in vivo results in left ventricular hypertrophy and activation of the renin-angiotensin system in the heart. Mechanical stretch of neonatal rat cardiac myocytes in vitro causes secretion of angiotensin II (Ang II), which in turn plays a pivotal role in mechanical stretch-induced hypertrophy. Although in vivo data suggest that the stimulus of hemodynamic overload serves as an i...
