Understanding functional interactions between G protein-coupled receptors is of great physiological and pathophysiological importance. Heteromerization provides one important potential mechanism for such interaction between different signalling pathways via macromolecular complex formation. Previous studies suggested a functional interplay between angiotensin II receptor type 1 (AT1) and Chemok...
The angiotensin II type 1 (AT1) receptor, transforming growth factor beta1 (TGFbeta1) and Oncostatin M (OSM) control key pathways that may be important during placentation. Although interactions between them exist in other tissues, trophoblast cells have not been investigated. Extravillous trophoblast cells, SGHPL-4, were stimulated with 10 ng/ml TGFbeta1 +/- 100 ng/ml OSM for 24 h. Real-time P...
Angiotensin II (Ang II) is a powerful mediator of adverse cardiac remodeling and fibrosis. However, the mechanisms of Ang II-induced myocardial fibrosis remain to be clarified. We postulated that Ang II alters transforming growth factor beta (TGF-beta) receptor expression, specifically that of endoglin, and thereby modulates cardiac fibroblast (CF) collagen metabolism. Experiments were conducte...
The renal effects of angiotensin II(AII) are attributed to AT1 receptors. In contrast, the function of renal AT2 receptors in unknown. Using a microdialysis technique, we monitored changes in renal interstitial fluid (RIF) prostaglandin E2 (PGE2) and cyclic guanosine 3', 5'-monophosphate (cGMP) in response to dietary sodium (Na) depletion alone, or Na depletion or normal Na diet combined with t...
In both humans and animals, heart failure is associated with sympathoexcitation and increased activity of the renin–angiotensin system.1,2 Studies in animals have shown that in heart failure, there is increased expression of angiotensin type 1 (AT1) receptors in key brain regions regulating sympathetic activity, such as the nucleus of the solitary tract, rostral ventrolateral medulla (RVLM), an...
Essential hypertension is a common disease, yet its pathogenesis is not well understood. Altered control of sodium excretion in the kidney may be a key causative feature, but this has been difficult to test experimentally, and recent studies have challenged this hypothesis. Based on the critical role of the renin-angiotensin system (RAS) and the type I (AT1) angiotensin receptor in essential hy...
Angiotensin IV (Ang IV) is a metabolite of the potent vasoconstrictor angiotensin II (Ang II). Because specific binding sites for this peptide have been reported in numerous tissues including the brain, it has been suggested that a specific Ang IV receptor (AT4) might exist. Bolus injection of Ang IV in brain ventricles has been implicated in learning, memory, and localized vasodilatation. Howe...
BACKGROUND Activation of the renin-angiotensin system with increased levels of renin and angiotensin (Ang) II in pregnancy has been reported, but the vascular responsiveness to Ang II seems to be decreased, thereby keeping maternal blood pressure (BP) constant. We postulated that the balance of angiotensin type 1 (AT1) and angiotensin type 2 (AT2) receptor expression, which would exert antagoni...
Recent studies have pointed out the differential role of angiotensin II (Ang II) receptor subtypes, AT1 and AT2, in cardiac hypertrophy and fibrosis during pathological cardiac growth. Because senescence is characterized by an important cardiovascular remodeling, we examined the age-related expression of cardiac Ang II receptors in rats. AT1 and AT2 receptor subtype messenger RNA (mRNA) levels ...
Angiotensin II, the principal effector of the renin angiotensin system, is a multifunctional peptide that modulates blood pressure, water and sodium homeostasis, neuronal function, and other neurohumoral systems.1–3 Initial research with angiotensin II focused on its role in the pathogenesis of hypertension; however, in the past decade, increasing evidence has accumulated to indicate that this ...
