Increased vascular sympathetic modulation in mice with Mas receptor deficiency [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of the Renin-Angiotensin-Aldosterone System, 2016
Introduction: The angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2)/angiotensin (Ang)-(1–7)/Mas axis could modulate the heart rate (HR) and blood pressure variabilities (BPV) which are important predictors of cardiovascular risk and provide information about the autonomic modulation of the cardiovascular system.

Direct imaging of lateral movements of AMPA receptors inside synapses [PDF]

open access: yesEMBO J 22, 18 (15/09/2003) 4656-65, 2007
Trafficking of AMPA receptors in and out of synapses is crucial for synaptic plasticity. Previous studies have focused on the role of endo/exocytosis processes or that of lateral diffusion of extra-synaptic receptors. We have now directly imaged AMPAR movements inside and outside synapses of live neurons using single-molecule fluorescence microscopy ...

TO90 inhibits angiotensin II-induced inflammatory response by up-regulating ACE2/Ang-(1-7)/MAS receptor axis in human retinal pigment epithelial cells

open access: yesDi-san junyi daxue xuebao, 2019
Objective To investigate whether TO90 inhibits angiotensin II (Ang Ⅱ)-induced inflammatory response by regulating the expressions of ACE2/Ang-(1-7)/MAS receptor axis in human retinal pigment epithelial cells.

Synergism between Angiotensin receptors ligands: Role of Angiotensin‐(1‐7) in modulating AT2R agonist response on nitric oxide in kidney cells

open access: yesPharmacology Research & Perspectives, 2020
Angiotensin‐(1‐7), an endogenous agonist for the MasR, has been shown to interact with ang‐II AT1R and AT2R. Earlier we showed a physical and functional interaction between MasR and AT2R in response to their respective agonists ang‐(1‐7) and C21 ...

Alternative renin-angiotensin system pathways in adipose tissue and their role in the pathogenesis of obesity

open access: yesEndocrine Regulations, 2016
Adipose tissue expresses all the renin-angiotensin system (RAS) components that play an important role in the adipogenesis, lipid and glucose metabolism regulation in an auto/paracrine manner.

Mas receptor is involved in the estrogen-receptor induced nitric oxide-dependent vasorelaxation

open access: yesBiochemical Pharmacology, 2017
The Mas receptor is involved in the angiotensin (Ang)-(1-7) vasodilatory actions by increasing nitric oxide production (NO). We have previously demonstrated an increased production of Ang-(1-7) in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVEC) exposed to estradiol (E2), suggesting a potential cross-talk between E2 and the Ang-(1-7)/Mas receptor axis ...

Transactivation of ErbB Family of Receptor Tyrosine Kinases Is Inhibited by Angiotensin-(1-7) via Its Mas Receptor. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS ONE, 2015
Transactivation of the epidermal growth factor receptor (EGFR or ErbB) family members, namely EGFR and ErbB2, appears important in the development of diabetes-induced vascular dysfunction.

Large number of receptors may reduce cellular response time variation [PDF]

open access: yesPhysical biology 10 (3), 035008, 2013, 2012
Cells often have tens of thousands of receptors, even though only a few activated receptors can trigger full cellular responses. Reasons for the overabundance of receptors remain unclear. We suggest that, in certain conditions, the large number of receptors results in a competition among receptors to be the first to activate the cell.
