Emerging concepts of regulation of angiotensin II receptors: new players and targets for traditional receptors.
Angiotensin (Ang) II exerts its important physiological functions through 2 distinct receptor subtypes, type 1 (AT(1)) and type 2 (AT(2)) receptors. Recently, new evidence has accumulated showing the existence of several novel receptor interacting proteins and various angiotensin II receptor activation mechanisms beyond the classical actions of receptors for Ang II. These associated proteins co...
متن کاملRegulation of vascular angiotensin II receptors by EGF.
After vascular endothelial injury, angiotensin II (ANG II) plays a role in the resulting hypertrophic response, and expression of epidermal growth factor (EGF) is enhanced. Therefore, we tested the possibility that EGF regulates vascular ANG II action and receptor expression. Incubation of cultured aortic vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMC) with EGF (or basic fibroblast growth factor but not pl...
متن کاملRegulation of angiotensin II receptors beyond the classical pathway.
The RAS (renin-angiotensin system) plays a role not only in the cardiovascular system, including blood pressure regulation, but also in the central nervous system. AngII (angiotensin II) binds two major receptors: the AT(1) receptor (AngII type 1 receptor) and AT(2) receptor (AngII type 2 receptor). It has been recognized that AT(2) receptor activation not only opposes AT(1) receptor actions, b...
متن کاملRegulation of Primate Angiotensin II Receptors During Altered Sodium Intake
In the rat, angiotensin II receptors of the adrenal glomerulosa and smooth muscle undergo reciprocal regulatory changes that parallel the changes in target cell sensitivity to angiotensin II during altered sodium intake. In primates, the relative importance of angiotensin II receptor regulation during sodium-induced changes in angiotensin II sensitivity is not clear. To evaluate the role of ang...
