Therapeutic targets in the brain for overactive bladder: A focus on angiotensin II type 1 receptor

Journal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2023
Overactive bladder is a condition that affects both men and women, and significantly affects patients' quality of life. Anticholinergics, β3-adrenoceptor agonists, and botulinum toxin are currently being used for treatment.

Localization and function of angiotensin AT1 receptors [PDF]

American Journal of Hypertension, 2000
The distributions of angiotensin AT1 and AT2 receptors have been mapped by in vitro autoradiography throughout most tissues of many mammals, including humans. In addition to confirming that AT1 receptors occur in sites known to be targets for the physiologic actions of angiotensin, such as the adrenal cortex and medulla, renal glomeruli and proximal ...

Differential β-arrestin2 requirements for constitutive and agonist-induced internalization of the CB1 cannabinoid receptor [PDF]

, 2013
CB1 cannabinoid receptor (CB1R) undergoes both constitutive and agonist-induced internalization, but the underlying mechanisms of these processes and the role of beta-arrestins in the regulation of CB1R function are not completely understood.

The endocytosis of oxidized LDL via the activation of the angiotensin II type 1 receptor

iScience, 2021
Summary: Arrestin-dependent activation of a G-protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) triggers endocytotic internalization of the receptor complex. We analyzed the interaction between the pattern recognition receptor (PRR) lectin-like oxidized low-density ...

Significance of Matrix Metalloproteinase-9 Inhibition by Imidapril for Prevention of Abdominal Aortic Aneurysms in Angiotensin II Type 1 Receptor–Knockout Mice

Journal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2013
To clarify the matrix metalloproteinase (MMP)-9 inhibitory effect of an angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitor in vivo, we evaluated the effect of an ACE inhibitor against elastase-induced abdominal aortic aneurysm (AAA) progression in mice ...

Angiotensin II receptor pharmacology and AT1-receptor blockers [PDF]

Journal of Human Hypertension, 1999
Angiotensin II (Ang II) has diverse physiological actions leading, for example, to increases in extracellular volume, peripheral vascular resistance and blood pressure, and has also been implicated in the regulation of cell growth and differentiation.

Autoantibodies Targeting AT1 Receptor from Patients with Acute Coronary Syndrome Upregulate Proinflammatory Cytokines Expression in Endothelial Cells Involving NF-κB Pathway

Journal of Immunology Research, 2014
Our study intended to prove whether agonistic autoantibodies to angiotensin II type 1 receptor (AT1-AAs) exist in patients with coronary heart disease (CHD) and affect the human endothelial cell (HEC) by upregulating proinflammatory cytokines expression ...

Agonist-like activity of antibodies to angiotensin II receptor subtype 1 (AT1) from rats immunized with AT1 receptor peptide

, 1999
In the present study, rats were immunized with angiotensin II receptor subtype 1 (AT1) receptor peptides for 3 months to see if the immunization produced specific anti-AT1 receptor antibodies and if continuous stimulation for 3 months affected blood ...
