Angiotensin II Type 1 Receptor–associated Protein [PDF]

Hypertension, 2013
See related article, pp 1203–1210 Most physiological actions of angiotensin (Ang) II are mediated by its binding to the Ang II type 1 receptors (AT1R). These include, but are not limited to, vasoconstriction, increased renal sodium and water reabsorption, as well as the stimulation of aldosterone release, thirst, vasopressin secretion, and cell growth.

SETDB2 Mitigates Podocyte Dysfunction in Diabetic Kidney Disease Through Epigenetic Silencing of SMAD3

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
SETDB2 epigenetically represses Smad3 transcription by increasing H3K9me3 enrichment at its promoter, thereby mitigating podocyte dysfunction in DKD. The transcription factor TCF21 binds directly to the Setdb2 promoter and enhances its expression in podocytes. Abstract Podocyte dysfunction represents both an early pathological hallmark and a key driver

Modulation of the renin-angiotensin system against COVID-19: A path forward?

International Journal of Infectious Diseases
Soon after the pandemic outbreak in 2020, it was proposed that binding of SARS-CoV-2 to the angiotensin converting enzyme-2 may explain most of COVID-19’s manifestations.

GPCRs in CAR‐T Cell Immunotherapy: Expanding the Target Landscape and Enhancing Therapeutic Efficacy

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Chimeric antigen receptor T cell therapy faces dual challenges of target scarcity and an immunosuppressive microenvironment in solid tumors. This review highlights how G protein‐coupled receptors can serve as both novel targets to expand the therapeutic scope and functional modules to enhance CAR‐T cell efficacy.

Macrophagic Sclerostin Loop2‐ApoER2 Interaction Required by Sclerostin for Cardiovascular Protective Action

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Sclerostin loop2‐ApoER2 interaction in macrophages is required by sclerostin to suppress NF‐κB nuclear translocation and phosphorylation, to promote macrophage conversion into anti‐inflammatory subtypes in atherosclerotic aortas, as well as to prevent atherosclerosis and aortic aneurysm development in ApoE−/− mice. Abstract Therapeutic antibody against

Acute Urinary Bladder Distension Triggers ICAM-1-mediated Renal Oxidative Injury via the Norepinephrine–renin–angiotensin II System in Rats

Journal of the Formosan Medical Association, 2009
Acute urinary bladder distension (AUBD) can activate bladder mechanical afferent and renal sympathetic nerves, which contributes to renal vasoconstriction.

Effectiveness of Pre‐Transplant Dual GLP‐1 Receptor Agonist and SGLT2 Inhibitor Therapy on All‐Cause Mortality in Organ Transplantation Candidates with Obesity and Type 2 Diabetes: a Target‐Trial Emulation

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This target trial emulation in solid organ transplant candidates with obesity and type 2 diabetes evaluates whether pre‐transplant dual therapy with GLP‐1 receptor agonists plus SGLT2 inhibitors is associated with post‐transplant mortality and kidney graft outcomes compared with monotherapy or usual care, using multinational electronic health records ...

Modeling Angiotensin II‐mediated activation of the Angiotensin II Type 1 Receptor

The FASEB Journal, 2018
It is well known that agonist binding to GPCRs engages a structural rearrangement, leading to GDP disassociation from the G‐alpha subunit and subsequent GTP association and activation of the Gα subunit. However, the structural mechanism mediating intramolecular molecular communication between the agonist binding pocket and G‐alpha ...

A Conserved NPLFY Sequence Contributes to Agonist Binding and Signal Transduction but Is Not an Internalization Signal for the Type 1 Angiotensin II Receptor (*)

Journal of Biological Chemistry, 1995
A conserved NPX2-3Y sequence that is located in the seventh transmembrane helix of many G protein-coupled receptors has been predicted to participate in receptor signaling and endocytosis.
