Angiotensin-II type 1 receptor-mediated hypertension in D4 dopamine receptor-deficient mice.
Dopamine receptors are important in systemic blood pressure regulation. D4 receptors are expressed in the kidney and brain, but their role in cardiovascular regulation is unknown. In pentobarbital-anesthetized mice, systolic and diastolic blood pressures were elevated in sixth-generation D4 receptor-deficient (D4(-/-)) mice and in tenth-generation D4(-/-) mice compared with D4 wild-type (D4(+/+...
متن کاملCrocin prevents acute angiotensin II-induced hypertension in anesthetized rats
Objective: Angiotensin II (Ang II), the main product of renin-angiotensin system (RAS) has a well-known role in cardiovascular regulation. Over-production of Ang II is one of the important underlying mechanisms of hypertension. In this study, the effect of crocin on cardiovascular responses in rats with acute hypertension induced by Ang II was evaluated. Materials and methods: Rats were divided...
متن کاملRegulation of angiotensin II type 1 receptor mRNA and protein in angiotensin II-induced hypertension.
Chronic elevations of circulating angiotensin II (Ang II) cause sustained hypertension and enhanced accumulation of intrarenal Ang II by an AT1 receptor-dependent process. The present study tested the hypothesis that chronic elevations in circulating Ang II regulate AT1 mRNA and protein expression in a tissue-specific manner. Sprague-Dawley rats were infused with Ang II (80 ng/min) or vehicle s...
متن کاملIntrarenal suppression of angiotensin II type 1 receptor binding molecule in angiotensin II-infused mice.
ATRAP [ANG II type 1 receptor (AT1R)-associated protein] is a molecule which directly interacts with AT1R and inhibits AT1R signaling. The aim of this study was to examine the effects of continuous ANG II infusion on the intrarenal expression and distribution of ATRAP and to determine the role of AT1R signaling in mediating these effects. C57BL/6 male mice were subjected to vehicle or ANG II in...
متن کاملAltered functioning of both renal dopamine D1 and angiotensin II type 1 receptors causes hypertension in old rats.
Activation of renal dopamine D1 (D1R) and angiotensin II type 1 receptors (AT(1)Rs) influences the activity of proximal tubular sodium transporter Na,K-ATPase and maintains sodium homeostasis and blood pressure. We reported recently that diminished D1R and exaggerated AT(1)R functions are associated with hypertension in old Fischer 344 × Brown Norway F1 (FBN) rats, and oxidative stress plays a ...
