Vascular Biology Possible Involvement of Angiotensin-Converting Enzyme 2 and Mas Activation in Inhibitory Effects of Angiotensin II Type 1 Receptor Blockade on Vascular Remodeling
We explored the roles of angiotensin-converting enzyme 2 (ACE2), angiotensin-(1-7), and Mas activation in angiotensin II type 1 receptor blockade-mediated attenuation of vascular remodeling. Vascular injury was induced by polyethylene-cuff placement around the mouse femoral artery. After cuff placement, the mRNA level of both ACE2 and Mas was markedly decreased in wild-type mice, whereas ACE mR...

متن کاملImmunocytochemical localization of the alpha-1B adrenergic receptor and the contribution of this and the other subtypes to vascular smooth muscle contraction: analysis with selective ligands and antisense oligonucleotides.
The contribution of the alpha-1B adrenergic receptor (AR) to vascular smooth muscle contraction has been assessed using a combination of immunological, molecular biological and pharmacological approaches. A subtype-selective antibody detected alpha-1B immunoreactivity in the medial layer of the aorta, caudal, femoral, iliac, mesenteric resistance, renal and superior mesenteric arteries. Recepto...
متن کاملConstitutively active mutants of the alpha(1a)- and the alpha(1b)-adrenergic receptor subtypes reveal coupling to different signaling pathways and physiological responses in rat cardiac myocytes.
Activation of alpha(1)-adrenergic receptors influences both the contractile activity and the growth potential of cardiac myocytes. However, the signaling pathways linking activation of specific alpha(1)-adrenergic receptor (AR) subtypes to these physiological responses remain controversial. In the present study, a molecular approach was used to identify conclusively the signaling pathways activ...
متن کاملBlockade of endogenous cytokines mitigates neointimal formation in obese Zucker rats.
BACKGROUND It is well known that diabetes mellitus is a major risk factor for vascular diseases such as atherosclerosis and restenosis after angioplasty. It has become clear that advanced glycation end products (AGE) and their receptor (RAGE) are implicated in vascular diseases, especially in diabetes mellitus. Nevertheless, the mechanisms by which diabetes mellitus is often associated with vas...
