Angiotensin II Increased Neuronal Stem Cell Proliferation: Role of AT2R
Angiotensin II (Ang II), known a potent vasoactive substance in the renin-angiotensin system in the brain, plays a critical role in systemic blood pressure control. However, increasing evidence indicated that the physiological role of Ang II go beyond its vasoactive effect. In the present study, we demonstrated that Ang II type-1 receptor (AT1R) and type-2 receptor (AT2R) were expressed in prim...
متن کاملThe effect of adrenomedullin and proadrenomedullin N- terminal 20 peptide on angiotensin II induced vascular smooth muscle cell proliferation
Objective(s): The study aimed to investigate the effects of adrenomedullin (ADM) and proadrenomedullin N- terminal 20 peptide (PAMP) on angiotensin II (AngII)-stimulated proliferation in vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs). Materials and Methods: Thoracic aorta was obtained from Wistar rats and VSMCs were isolated from aorta tissues and then cultured. In vitro cultured VSMCs were stimulated w...
متن کاملIntracellular angiotensin II induces cell proliferation independent of AT1 receptor.
We recently reported intracrine effects of angiotensin II (ANG II) on cardiac myocyte growth and hypertrophy that were not inhibited by the ANG II type 1 receptor (AT(1)) antagonist, losartan. To further determine the role of AT(1) in intracrine effects, we studied the effect of intracellular ANG II (iANG II) on cell proliferation in native Chinese hamster ovary (CHO) cells and those stably tra...
متن کاملProrenin-induced myocyte proliferation: no role for intracellular angiotensin II.
Cardiomyocytes bind, internalize, and activate prorenin, the inactive precursor of renin, via a mannose 6-phosphate receptor (M6PR)--dependent mechanism. M6PRs couple directly to G-proteins. To investigate whether prorenin binding to cardiomyocytes elicits a response, and if so, whether this response depends on angiotensin (Ang) II, we incubated neonatal rat cardiomyocytes with 2 nmol/L proreni...
