Recent studies have provided evidence for a specific role of the angiotensin II type 2 receptor (AT2) in in vitro neuron differentiation, and in AT2 knock-out mice that display central neurological anomalies. The role of AT2 in brain development is currently unknown. By using radiolabeled cRNA probe
Fetal growth restriction (FGR) predisposes to significant short-and long-term health problems. Epidemiological studies have suggested a role for inherited factors in its pathogenesis. The angiotensin II receptor genes, AGTR1 and AGTR2, are candidate genes because they mediate processes that are impo
In previous studies, we showed that angiotensin II (Ang II) and its congener peptides-angiotensin-(2-8) ] and angiotensin-(1-7) [Ang-(1-7)]activate 2 distinct signal transduction pathways in a mixed population of human cortical astrocytoma cells. This suggested that different populations of astrocyt
Decreased splanchnic vascular response to exogenous angiotensin-I1 (A-11) infusion in portal hypertension has recently been documented. A-II receptor density and binding affinity in the mesenteric artery, portal vein, and adrenal gland of normal and portal hypertensive rabbits were studied. Portal h
