Angiotensin II modulates THP-1-like macrophage phenotype and inflammatory signatures via angiotensin II type 1 receptor

Frontiers in Cardiovascular Medicine, 2023
Angiotensin II (Ang II) is a major component of the renin–angiotensin or renin–angiotensin–aldosterone system, which is the main element found to be involved in cardiopathology.

Does activation of the protective Renin-Angiotensin System have therapeutic potential in COVID-19?

Molecular Medicine, 2020
Infection of lung cells by the corona virus results in a loss of the balance between, on the one hand, angiotensin II-mediated stimulation of the angiotensin II type 1 receptor and, on the other hand, stimulation of the angiotensin II type 2 receptor and/

Type 1 angiotensin II receptors in human endometrium [PDF]

Molecular Human Reproduction, 1996
From evidence based on the use of specific receptor subtype antagonists, it has generally been assumed that human uterine tissue contains only type 2 (AT2) angiotensin II (AII) receptor subtype. Using a monoclonal antibody, 6313/G2, directed against a specific sequence in the extracellular domain of the type 1 AII receptor (AT1), in immunocytochemical ...

Accurate Evaluation on the Interactions of SARS-CoV-2 with Its Receptor ACE2 and Antibodies CR3022/CB6 [PDF]

CHIN.PHYS.LETT. Vol.38, No.1(2021)018701 Express Letter, 2021
The spread of the coronavirus disease 2019 (COVID-19) caused by severe acute respiratory syndrome coronavirus-2 (SARS-CoV-2) has become a global health crisis. The binding affinity of SARS-CoV-2 (in particular the receptor binding domain, RBD) to its receptor angiotensin converting enzyme 2 (ACE2) and the antibodies is of great importance in ...

Angiotensin II Type 2 Receptor Antagonizes Angiotensin II Type 1 Receptor–Mediated Cardiomyocyte Autophagy [PDF]

Hypertension, 2009
Autophagy has emerged as an important process in the pathogenesis of cardiovascular diseases, but the proximal triggers for autophagy are unknown. Angiotensin II plays a central role in the pathogenesis of cardiac hypertrophy and heart failure. In this study, we used angiotensin II type 1 (AT 1 ) and type 2 (AT

Assessing the Relationship of Angiotensin II Type 1 Receptors with Erythropoietin in a Human Model of Endogenous Angiotensin II Type 1 Receptor Antagonism [PDF]

Cardiorenal Medicine, 2015
<b><i>Hypothesis/Introduction:</i></b> Angiotensin II (Ang II) has been shown to control erythropoietin (EPO) synthesis as Ang II type 1 receptor (AT1R) blockers block Ang-II-induced EPO oversecretion. To further explore the involvement of AT1R in processes controlling EPO levels, plasma EPO and mononuclear cell NADPH oxidase 4 (

Beneficial Effect of Mas Receptor Deficiency on Vascular Cognitive Impairment in the Presence of Angiotensin II Type 2 Receptor

Journal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2018
BackgroundThe classical renin‐angiotensin system is known as the angiotensin (Ang)‐converting enzyme/Ang II/Ang type 1 receptor axis, which induces various organ damage including cognitive decline.

Angiotensin II Type 1 Receptor Blockers [PDF]

Circulation, 2001
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 ...

Angiotensin II Type 1 Receptor Mediates Angiotensin II Inhibition on BKCa Channels [PDF]

Biophysical Journal, 2012
The renin-angiotensin system (RAS) is a critical regulator of sodium balance, extracellular fluid volume, vascular resistance, and, ultimately, arterial blood pressure. The key RAS molecule angiotensin II type 1 receptor (AT1R), and another major determinant of vascular tone, the large conductance calcium-activated potassium (BKCa) channel, are both ...
