Reactive oxygen species-mediated homologous downregulation of angiotensin II type 1 receptor mRNA by angiotensin II.
Recent studies suggest a crucial role of reactive oxygen species (ROS) for the signaling of angiotensin (Ang) II through Ang II type 1 receptor (AT(1)-R). However, the role of ROS in the regulation of AT(1)-R expression has not been explored. In this study, we examined the effect of an antioxidant on the homologous downregulation of AT(1)-R by Ang II. Ang II (10(-6) mol/L) decreased AT(1)-R mRN...
متن کاملMechanisms of reactive oxygen species-dependent downregulation of insulin receptor substrate-1 by angiotensin II.
OBJECTIVE Angiotensin II has been implicated in the pathogenesis of the vascular complications of insulin resistance. Recently, serine phosphorylation and degradation of insulin receptor substrate-1 (IRS-1) were shown to inhibit Akt activation and reduce glucose uptake. Therefore, we examined the effects of chronic angiotensin II treatment on IRS-1 phosphorylation and protein expression in vasc...
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 کاملAngiotensin 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 کاملDownregulation of angiotensin II type 1 receptors during sepsis.
Our study aimed to characterize the mechanisms underlying the attenuated cardiovascular responsiveness toward the renin-angiotensin system during sepsis. For this purpose, we determined the effects of experimental Gram-negative and Gram-positive sepsis in rats. We found that sepsis led to a ubiquitous upregulation of NO synthase isoform II expression and to pronounced hypotension. Despite incre...
