Despite advances characterizing mammalian angiotensin receptors, the phylogeny of fish angiotensin receptors remains unclear. Three aspects of receptor function: (1) the nature of the ligand; (2) the second messenger system activated by it; and (3) the pharmacological profile of specific antagonists, are examined to provide insight into the fish receptor. (1) The octapeptide sequences of fish and mammalian angiotensin II (ANG II) are nearly homologous, differing only at the first and fifth residues. Both peptides are almost equally efficacious and equipotent in heterologous systems and both contain key agonist switches Tyr(4) and Phe(8) necessary to activate mammalian AT(1)-type receptors. (2) ANG II increases inositol trisphosphate production, and elevates intracellular calcium in fish tissues consistent with activation of the AT(1) receptor. (3) However, the specific mammalian sartan-type AT(1) antagonists, e.g. losartan, produce inconsistent results in fish often acting as partial agonists, or inhibiting only at elevated concentrations. Because sartans and ANG II act at distinct sites on the AT(1) receptor, we propose that the teleost receptor is an AT(1)-type receptor that is fairly well conserved with respect to both the ANG binding site and coupling to the second messenger system, whereas the sartan binding site has been poorly conserved. The evidence for non-AT(1) type ANG II receptors in teleosts is limited. Mammalian AT(2) receptor antagonists are generally ineffective but may block at elevated, non-specific doses. Truncated ANG II fragments, ANG III and ANG IV, are often less potent than ANG II, however, their receptors have not been examined. Preliminary studies in trout indicate that angiotensin 1-7 may have a mild vasodilatory effect; additional work is needed to determine if non-AT(1)-type receptors are involved. 相似文献

The structure of the angiotensin molecule has been well preserved throughout the vertebrate scale with some amino acid variations. Specific angiotensin receptors (AT receptors) that mediate important physiological functions have been noted in a variety of tissues and species. Physiological and pharmacological characterization of AT receptors and, more recently, molecular cloning studies have elucidated the presence of AT receptor subtypes. Comparative studies suggest that an AT receptor subtype homologous to the mammalian type 1 receptor subtype (AT(1)), though pharmacologically distinct, is present in amphibians and birds, whereas AT receptors cloned from teleosts show low homology to both AT(1) and AT(2) receptor subtypes. Furthermore, receptors differing from both the AT(1)-homologue receptor and AT(2) receptor exist in some non-mammalian species. This may suggest that the prototype AT receptor evolved in primitive vertebrates and diverged to more than one type of AT receptor subtype during phylogeny. Furthermore, phenotypic modulation of AT receptors appears to occur during individual development/maturation. 相似文献

Agonist-induced internalisation of the rat type 1A (AT(1A)) angiotensin II receptor is associated with phosphorylation of a serine/threonine-rich region in its cytoplasmic tail. In yeast, hyperphosphorylation of the alpha-factor pheromone receptor regulates endocytosis of the receptor by facilitating the monoubiquitylation of its cytoplasmic tail on lysine residues. The role of receptor ubiquitylation in AT(1A) receptor internalisation was evaluated by deletion or replacement of lysine residues in its agonist-sensitive serine/threonine-rich region. Expression of such receptor mutants in CHO cells showed that these modifications had no detectable effect on the angiotensin II-induced endocytosis of the AT(1A) receptor. Furthermore, fusion of ubiquitin in-frame to an internalisation-deficient AT(1A) receptor mutant with a truncated carboxyl-terminal tail did not restore the endocytosis of the resulting chimeric receptor. No impairment of receptor internalisation was observed after substitution of all lysine residues in the serine/threonine-rich region at saturating angiotensin II concentrations, where endocytosis occurs by a beta-arrestin and dynamin independent mechanism. Taken together, these data demonstrate that ubiquitylation of the cytoplasmic serine/threonine-rich region of the AT(1A) receptor on lysine residues is not required for its agonist-induced internalisation, and suggest that endocytosis of mammalian G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) occurs by a different mechanism than that of yeast GPCRs. 相似文献

Angiotensin receptors: form and function and distribution 总被引:9,自引:0,他引:9

The peptide hormone, angiotensin II, acts primarily via type I (AT(1)) and type II (AT(2)) angiotensin receptors. Proteolytic fragments of angiotensin II also have biological activity via these and other receptors, with actions that may mimic or antagonise angiotensin II. Most notably, a high affinity-binding site for angiotensin IV (the Val(3)-Phe(8) fragment of angiotensin II) has recently been identified as the insulin-regulated aminopeptidase (IRAP). While AT(1) and AT(2) receptors are seven transmembrane-spanning, G protein-coupled receptors with some well-established features of relevance to health and disease, the existence of separate receptor systems for angiotensin fragments offers exciting possibilities for new therapeutics to target the diverse actions of the angiotensin peptides. 相似文献

Transgenic mouse models of angiotensin receptor subtype function in the cardiovascular system 总被引:2,自引:0,他引:2
Angiotensin II mediates is biological actions via different subtypes of G protein-coupled receptors, termed AT(1) and AT(2) receptors. In rodents, two AT(1) receptors have been identified, AT(1A) and AT(1B), whereas in humans a single AT(1) receptor exists. Recently, a number of transgenic animal models have been generated which overexpress or lack functional angiotensin II receptor subtypes. This review focuses on the physiological significance of angiotensin II receptor subtype diversity in the cardiovascular system. In the mouse, AT(1A) receptors are the major regulators of cardiovascular homeostasis by determining vascular tone and natriuresis. In addition, AT(1A) receptors mediate growth-stimulating signals in vascular and cardiac myocytes. AT(1B) receptors participate in blood pressure regulation, and their functions become apparent when the AT(1A) receptor gene is deleted. Deletion of the mouse gene for the AT(2) receptor subtype led to hypersensitivity to pressor and antinatriuretic effects of angiotensin II in vivo, suggesting that the AT(2) receptor subtype counteracts some of the biological effects of AT(1) receptor signalling. 相似文献

The type 1 (AT(1)) angiotensin receptor, which mediates the known physiological and pharmacological actions of angiotensin II, activates numerous intracellular signaling pathways and undergoes rapid internalization upon agonist binding. Morphological and biochemical studies have shown that agonist-induced endocytosis of the AT(1) receptor occurs via clathrin-coated pits, and is dependent on two regions in the cytoplasmic tail of the receptor. However, it is independent of G protein activation and signaling, and does not require the conserved NPXXY motif in the seventh transmembrane helix. The dependence of internalization of the AT(1) receptor on a cytoplasmic serine-threonine-rich region that is phosphorylated during agonist stimulation suggests that endocytosis is regulated by phosphorylation of the AT(1) receptor tail. beta-Arrestins have been implicated in the desensitization and endocytosis of several G protein-coupled receptors, but the exact nature of the adaptor protein required for association of the AT(1) receptor with clathrin-coated pits, and the role of dynamin in the internalization process, are still controversial. There is increasing evidence for a role of internalization in sustained signal generation from the AT(1) receptor. Several aspects of the mechanisms and specific function of AT(1) receptor internalization, including its precise mode and route of endocytosis, and the potential roles of cytoplasmic and nuclear receptors, remain to be elucidated. 相似文献

The renin-angiotensin system (RAS) and the kallikrein-kinin system (KKS) each encompasses a large number of molecules, with several participating in both systems. The RAS generates a family of bioactive angiotensin peptides with varying biological activities. These include angiotensin-(1-8) (Ang II), angiotensin-(2-8) (Ang III), angiotensin-(3-8) (Ang IV), and angiotensin-(1-7) [Ang-(1-7)]. Ang II and Ang III act on type 1 (AT(1)) and type 2 (AT(2)) angiotensin receptors, whereas, Ang IV and Ang-(1-7) act on their own receptors. The KKS also generates a family of bioactive peptides with varying biological activities. These include hydroxylated and non-hydroxylated bradykinin and kallidin peptides and their carboxypeptidase metabolites des-Arg(9)-bradykinin and des-Arg(10)-kallidin. Whereas bradykinin and kallidin act mainly via the type 2 bradykinin (B(2)) receptor, des-Arg(9)-bradykinin and des-Arg(10)-kallidin act mainly via the type 1 bradykinin (B(1)) receptor. The AT(1) receptor forms heterodimers with the AT(2) and B(2) receptors and there is cross talk between the AT(1) and epidermal growth factor receptors. The B(2) receptor also interacts with angiotensin converting enzyme and nitric oxide synthase. Both angiotensin and kinin peptides are metabolised by many different peptidases that are important determinants of the activities of the RAS and KKS, and several of which participate in both systems. 相似文献

The mechanism of G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) signal integration is controversial. While GPCR assembly into hetero-oligomers facilitates signal integration of different receptor types, cross-talk between Gαi- and Gαq-coupled receptors is often thought to be oligomerization independent. In this study, we examined the mechanism of signal integration between the Gαi-coupled type I cannabinoid receptor (CB(1)R) and the Gαq-coupled AT1R. We find that these two receptors functionally interact, resulting in the potentiation of AT1R signalling and coupling of AT1R to multiple G proteins. Importantly, using several methods, that is, co-immunoprecipitation and resonance energy transfer assays, as well as receptor- and heteromer-selective antibodies, we show that AT1R and CB(1)R form receptor heteromers. We examined the physiological relevance of this interaction in hepatic stellate cells from ethanol-administered rats in which CB(1)R is upregulated. We found a significant upregulation of AT1R-CB(1)R heteromers and enhancement of angiotensin II-mediated signalling, as compared with cells from control animals. Moreover, blocking CB(1)R activity prevented angiotensin II-mediated mitogenic signalling and profibrogenic gene expression. These results provide a molecular basis for the pivotal role of heteromer-dependent signal integration in pathology. 相似文献

Selective regulation of endogenous G protein-coupled receptors by arrestins in HEK293 cells 总被引:5,自引:0,他引:5
Arrestins play an important role in regulating desensitization and trafficking of G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs). However, limited insight into the specificity of arrestin-mediated regulation of GPCRs is currently available. Recently, we used an antisense strategy to reduce arrestin levels in HEK293 cells and characterize the role of arrestins on endogenous G(s)-coupled receptors (Mundell, S. J., Loudon, R. B., and Benovic, J. L. (1999) Biochemistry 38, 8723-8732). Here, we characterized GPCRs coupled to either G(q) (M(1) muscarinic acetylcholine receptor (M(1)AchR) and P2y(1) and P2y(2) purinergic receptors) or G(i) (somatostatin and AT1 angiotensin receptors) in wild type and arrestin antisense HEK293 cells. The agonist-specific desensitization of the M(1)Ach and somatostatin receptors was significantly attenuated in antisense-expressing cells, whereas desensitization of P2y(1) and P2y(2) purinergic and AT1 angiotensin receptors was unaffected by reduced arrestin levels. To further examine arrestin/GPCR specificity, we studied the effects of endogenous GPCR activation on the redistribution of arrestin-2 epitope tagged with the green fluorescent protein (arrestin-2-GFP). These studies revealed a receptor-specific movement of arrestin-2-GFP that mirrored the arrestin-receptor specificity observed in the antisense cells. Thus, agonist-induced activation of endogenous beta(2)-adrenergic, prostaglandin E(2), M(1)Ach, and somatostatin receptors induced arrestin-2-GFP redistribution to early endosomes, whereas P2y(1) and P2y(2) purinergic and AT1 angiotensin receptor activation did not. Thus, endogenous arrestins mediate the regulation of selective G(q)- and G(i)-coupled receptors in HEK293 cells. 相似文献

Agonist stimulation of G protein-coupled receptors causes receptor activation, phosphorylation, beta-arrestin binding and receptor internalization. Angiotensin II (AngII) causes rapid internalization of the AT1 receptors, whereas AngII-bound AT2 receptors do not internalize. Although the activation of the rat AT1A receptor with AngII causes translocation of beta-arrestin2 to the receptor, no association of this molecule with the AT2 receptor can be detected after AngII treatment with confocal microscopy or bioluminescence resonance energy transfer. These data demonstrate that the two subtypes of angiotensin receptors have different mechanisms of regulation. 相似文献

The 7-transmembrane or G protein-coupled receptors relay signals from hormones and sensory stimuli to multiple signaling systems at the intracellular face of the plasma membrane including heterotrimeric G proteins, ERK1/2, and arrestins. It is an emerging concept that 7-transmembrane receptors form oligomers; however, it is not well understood which roles oligomerization plays in receptor activation of different signaling systems. To begin to address this question, we used the angiotensin II type 1 (AT(1)) receptor, a key regulator of blood pressure and fluid homeostasis that in specific context has been described to activate ERKs without activating G proteins. By using bioluminescence resonance energy transfer, we demonstrate that AT(1) receptors exist as oligomers in transfected COS-7 cells. AT(1) oligomerization was both constitutive and receptor-specific as neither agonist, antagonist, nor co-expression with three other receptors affected the bioluminescence resonance energy transfer 2 signal. Furthermore, the oligomerization occurs early in biosynthesis before surface expression, because we could control AT(1) receptor export from the endoplasmic reticulum or Golgi by using regulated secretion/aggregation technology (RPD trade mark ). Co-expression studies of wild type AT(1) and AT(1) receptor mutants, defective in either ligand binding or G protein and ERK activation, yielded an interesting result. The mutant receptors specifically exerted a dominant negative effect on Galpha(q) activation, whereas ERK activation was preserved. These data suggest that distinctly active conformations of AT(1) oligomers can couple to each of these signaling systems and imply that oligomerization plays an active role in supporting these distinctly active conformations of AT(1) receptors. 相似文献

The angiotensin II type I (AT(1)) receptor mediates regulation of blood pressure and water-electrolyte balance by Ang II. Substitution of Gly for Asn(111) of the AT(1) receptor constitutively activates the receptor leading to Gq-coupled IP(3) production independent of Ang II binding. The Ang II-activated conformation of the AT1(N111G) receptor was proposed to be similar to that of the wild-type AT(1) receptor, although, various aspects of the Ang II-induced conformation of this constitutively active mutant receptor have not been systematically studied. Here, we provide evidence that the conformation of the active state of the wild-type and the constitutively active AT(1) receptors are different. Upon Ang II binding an activated conformation of the wild-type AT(1) receptor activates G protein and recruits beta-arrestin. In contrast, the agonist-bound AT1(N111G) mutant receptor preferentially couples to Gq and is inadequate in beta-arrestin recruitment. 相似文献

Cross-inhibition of angiotensin AT1 receptors supports the concept of receptor oligomerization 总被引:1,自引:1,他引:0
G protein-coupled receptors are cell surface receptors that mediate the effects of extracellular signals in the endocrine/paracrine and sensory systems. Experimental evidence is accumulating, which suggest that these receptors form dimers or higher order oligomers. The functional relevance of G protein-coupled receptor dimerization or oligomerization has been raised in a number of different processes, including ontogeny, internalization, ligand-induced regulation, pharmacological diversity and signal transduction of these receptors. Agonist-independent homo- and hetero-oligomerization of the angiotensin AT1 receptor has been reported, and it has been suggested that hetero-oligomerization with beta-adrenergic receptors leads to cross-inhibition of these receptors. Much less is known about the functional interactions between AT1 receptor homo-oligomers. The aim of the present study was to analyze the functional interactions between these homo-oligomers by determining the functions of normal, AT1 receptor blocker (candesartan) resistant (S109Y) and G protein coupling deficient (DRY/AAY) AT1 receptors (co-)expressed in COS-7 cells. Although we have found no evidence that stimulation of a G protein coupling deficient receptor could cross-activate co-expressed normal receptors, candesartan binding to a signaling deficient receptor caused cross-inhibition of co-expressed candesartan resistant AT1 receptors. Since the studied mutations were in the third intracellular helix of the receptor, the observed effects cannot be explained with domain swapping. These data suggest that AT1 receptor blockers cause cross-inhibition of homo-oligomerized AT1 receptors, and support the concept that receptor dimers/oligomers serve as the functional unit of G protein-coupled receptors. 相似文献

Influence of active immunization against angiotensin AT1 or AT2 receptor on hypertension development in young and adult SHR 总被引:9,自引:0,他引:9

The influence of long-lasting blockade of angiotensin AT1 or AT2 receptors by antibody against the particular receptor peptides on blood pressure and relative heart and kidney weight was studied in spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR). Young and adult SHR were repeatedly immunized against the sequence 14-23 of angiotensin AT1 receptor from the age of either 1 or 3 months. Other groups of young and adult SHR were immunized against the sequences 37-43 and 106-116 of angiotensin AT2 receptor. Synthetic peptides conjugated to bovine gamma globulin were used as antigens. After 5 months of immunization, blood pressure was measured by the direct method. All immunized animals produced antibodies against the particular peptides. At the end of immunization, the blood pressure was significantly decreased in SHR immunized in youth against angiotensin AT1 receptor peptide, although no difference in heart and kidney hypertrophy was observed compared to sham-immunized SHR. The immunization against angiotensin AT1 receptor peptide in adulthood as well as the immunization against angiotensin AT2 receptor peptides in youth or in adulthood affected neither blood pressure nor heart and kidney weight. No influence of immunization on the studied parameters was observed in normotensive WKY rats. Angiotensin AT1 receptors play a more important role in the pathogenesis of spontaneous hypertension than angiotensin AT2 receptors. The blockade of angiotensin AT1 receptors by active immunization against the receptor peptide attenuated hypertension development in young SHR but did not modify the already established hypertension in adult SHR. 相似文献

In mammalian brain, angiotensin II AT1 and AT2 receptor subtypes are apparently expressed only in neurons and not in glia. AT1 and AT2 receptor subtypes are sometimes closely associated, but apparently expressed in different neurons. Brain AT1/AT2 interactions may occur in selective cases as inter-neuron cross talk. There are two AT1 isoforms in rodents. AT1A, which predominates, and AT1B. There are also important inter-species differences in receptor expression. Relative lack of amino acid conservation in the gerbil gAT1A receptor substantially decreases affinity for the AT1 antagonists. AT1 receptors are expressed in brain areas regulating autonomic and hormonal responses. AT1A receptors are heterogeneously regulated in a number of experimental conditions. In specific areas, AT1A receptors are not normally expressed, but are induced under influence of reproductive hormones in dopaminergic neurons. There are AT1 and AT2 receptors also in areas related to limbic, sensory and motor functions and their expression is developmentally regulated. A picture is emerging of widespread, neuronally localized, heterogeneously regulated, closely associated brain angiotensin receptor subtypes, modulating multiple functions including neuroendocrine and autonomic responses, stress, cerebrovascular flow, and perhaps brain maturation, neuronal plasticity, memory and behavior. 相似文献

AimsThe renin–angiotensin system (RAS) plays a key role in heat acclimation, a process which induces adaptive changes in cardiac function. These changes are mediated in part by reduced thyroid hormone activity and improve myocardial function during and following exposure to various (non-heat) stresses such as ischemia. The aim of this study was to examine the role of RAS in the development of the heat acclimated protected heart.Main methodsThree treatment groups were used: (1) C, controls; (2) AC, heat acclimated rats (1 mo 34 °C,); and (3) HAEL, heat acclimated euthyroid rats treated with 3 ng/ml of eltroxine. A Langendorff perfusion apparatus was used to measure hemodynamic parameters at baseline and following administration of angiotensin-II, losartan and PD123319 in isolated hearts. Protein and mRNA levels of angiotensin receptors were measured.Key findingsBoth C and HAEL animals showed increased contractility and a drop in coronary flow during angiotensin II exposure whereas AC animals did not have an inotropic response or vasoconstriction. Significantly different patterns of AT1 and AT2 receptor densities (a 50% reduction and a 30% increase in outer cell membrane AT1 and AT2 receptors respectively) were observed in AC animals compared to the other two groups. AT receptor mRNA levels were similar in all treatment groups.SignificanceThe attenuated response of heat acclimated hearts to angiotensin is mediated by reduced thyroxine levels and is associated with a shift in AT1 receptors from the outer to the inner membrane. This shift appears to be caused by modified posttranslational trafficking of AT receptors. 相似文献

During their development from progenitor cells, adipocytes not only express enzymatic activities necessary for the storage of triglycerides, but also achieve the capability to produce a number of endocrine factors such as leptin, tumor necrosis factor alpha (TNFalpha), complement factors, adiponectin/adipoQ, plasminogen activator inhibitor-1 (PAI-1), angiotensin II and others. Angiotensin II is produced from angiotensinogen by the proteolytic action of renin and angiotensin-converting enzyme; and several data point to the existence of a complete local renin-angiotensin system in adipose tissue, including angiotensin II receptors. In this study, we directly monitored the production of angiotensin II type one receptor (AT1) and angiotensin II type two receptor (AT2) proteins during the adipose conversion of murine 3T3-L1 preadipocytes by immunodetection with specific antibodies. AT1 receptors could be detected throughout the whole differentiation period. The strong AT2 signal in preadipocytes however was completely lost during the course of differentiation, which suggests that expression of AT2 receptors is inversely correlated to the adipose conversion program. 相似文献

Hypoxia could stimulate proliferation of mesenchymal stem cells (MSCs) under certain conditions. This study determined angiotensin II mechanisms and PI3K/AKT pathway in hypoxia‐induced proliferation of MSCs. Hypoxia (3% oxygen) induced cellular proliferation in mouse MSCs and upregulated endogenous angiotensin II and angiotensin‐converting enzyme in the cell culture and expression of AT1 receptors. The expressions of Sox2, not Oct4 and Rex1, were significantly increased by the hypoxia. The blockade of AT1 receptors, not AT2 receptors, depressed hypoxia induced the proliferative effects. Both hypoxia and exogenous angiotensin II activated p‐AKT. Moreover, AT1 receptor inhibitor blocked the effects of hypoxia‐mediated p‐AKT upregulation. The data demonstrated that the hypoxia at 3% oxygen level could induce mouse MSC proliferation, probably as a result of the activation of PI3K signalling pathways via AT1 receptors.
