## Abstract Rat1 fibroblasts stably transfected with the rat angiotensin II (AngII) AT1a and bradykinin (BK) B2 receptor cDNAs gained the ability to bind Ang II and BK. Wildβtype Rat1 cells bound neither ligand. Exposure to either effector led to characteristic GΞ±i and GΞ±q signal cascades, the rele
