Pressure overload induces cardiac hypertrophy in angiotensin II type 1A receptor knockout mice.
BACKGROUND Many studies have suggested that the renin-angiotensin system plays an important role in the development of pressure overload-induced cardiac hypertrophy. Moreover, it has been reported that pressure overload-induced cardiac hypertrophy is completely prevented by ACE inhibitors in vivo and that the stored angiotensin II (Ang II) is released from cardiac myocytes in response to mechan...
متن کاملThe orphan receptor TR3 participates in angiotensin II-induced cardiac hypertrophy by controlling mTOR signalling
Angiotensin II (AngII) induces cardiac hypertrophy and increases the expression of TR3. To determine whether TR3 is involved in the regulation of the pathological cardiac hypertrophy induced by AngII, we established mouse and rat hypertrophy models using chronic AngII administration. Our results reveal that a deficiency of TR3 in mice or the knockdown of TR3 in the left ventricle of rats attenu...
متن کاملBeta-arrestin2-mediated inotropic effects of the angiotensin II type 1A receptor in isolated cardiac myocytes.
The G protein-coupled receptor kinases (GRKs) and beta-arrestins, families of molecules essential to the desensitization of G protein-dependent signaling via seven-transmembrane receptors (7TMRs), have been recently shown to also transduce G protein-independent signals from receptors. However, the physiologic consequences of this G protein-independent, GRK/beta-arrestin-dependent signaling are ...
متن کاملAngiotensin II type 1a receptor mediates doxorubicin-induced cardiomyopathy.
Although the serious cardiotoxicity of doxorubicin (DOX), a useful chemotherapeutic agent, limits the use of this agent, the mechanism of DOX-induced cardiomyopathy remains unclear. Since accumulating evidence suggests that activation of the renin-angiotensin system is involved in the development of various types of cardiovascular remodeling, we examined the role of angiotensin II (Ang II) in D...
متن کاملAngiotensin II type 2 receptor is essential for left ventricular hypertrophy and cardiac fibrosis in chronic angiotensin II-induced hypertension.
BACKGROUND The roles of angiotensin II (Ang II) in the regulation of heart function under normal and pathological conditions have been well documented. Although 2 types of Ang II receptor (AT(1) and AT(2)) are found in various proportions, most studies have focused on AT(1)-coupled events. In the present study, we examined the hypothesis that signaling by AT(2) is important to the development o...
