The study tested whether this could be mediated indirectly through an interaction with the angiotensin II type 1 receptor, AT1. In transfected mammalian cells, Mas was not activated by angiotensin II; however, AT1 receptor-mediated, angiotensin II-induced production of inositol phosphates and mobilization of intracellular Ca2+ was diminished by 50% after coexpression of Mas, despite a concomitant increase in angiotensin II binding capacity. Mas and the AT1 receptor formed a constitutive hetero-oligomeric complex that was unaffected by the presence of agonists or antagonists of the 2 receptors. In vivo, Mas acts as an antagonist of the AT1 receptor; mice lacking the Mas gene show enhanced angiotensin II-mediated vasoconstriction in mesenteric microvessels. These results demonstrate that Mas can hetero-oligomerize with the AT1 receptor and by so doing inhibit the actions of angiotensin II.

ACE converted the decapeptide Ang I to Ang II. ACE2, in contrast, converted Ang I to the nonapeptide Ang1-9. PMID:10969042 </p> <p>ACE2 functions as a carboxypeptidase, cleaving a single residue from angiotensin I (AngI), generating Ang1-9, and a single residue from angiotensin II (AngII) to generate Ang1-7. The ACE2 homologue ACE, by contrast, cleaves the decapeptide AngI into the octapeptide AngII. Thus, ACE2 counterbalances the function of ACE and negatively regulates AngII production. To test whether Spike-Fc injections indeed affect the function of the renin-angiotensin system, AngII levels in the lungs of acid- and Spike-Fc–treated mice were analyzed. Acid aspiration increased AngII levels in the lungs of wild-type mice. Notably, the authors observed a further, significant increase in AngII levels in the lung tissue of mice treated with Spike-Fc. PMID:16007097 Adipocytes express all components of the renin-angiotensin system, and the renin-angiotensin system is involved in obesity and insulin resistance. The aim of this study was to investigate plasma Ang II in obese patients with type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2D) and the change during weight loss. Fifty Japanese obese subjects with T2D were enrolled. After 24 weeks of weight reduction diet, the mean body weight, visceral fat area (VFA), and hemoglobin A(1c) decreased significantly by 2.3%, 7.0%, and 8.3%, respectively. The mean plasma Ang II decreased by 24% and correlated with body weight both at baseline. PMID:19375596 </p> <p>Overall the findings suggest that Ang-(1-12), not Ang I, is the better substrate for Ang II formation by chymase in adult rats. In addition, this confirms the previous observation that chymase (rather than ACE) is the main hydrolyzing enzyme responsible for Ang II generation from Ang-(1-12) in the adult rat heart. PMID:27465904 Since angiotensin-(1-12) [Ang-(1-12)] is a non-renin dependent alternate precursor for the generation of cardiac Ang peptides in rat tissue, the authors investigated the metabolism of Ang-(1-12) by plasma membranes (PM) isolated from human atrial appendage tissue from nine patients undergoing cardiac surgery for primary control of atrial fibrillation. PM was incubated with highly purified Ang-(1-12) for 1 h with or without renin-angiotensin system (RAS) inhibitors [lisinopril for angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE), SCH39370 for neprilysin (NEP), MLN-4760 for ACE2 and chymostatin for chymase]. In the absence of all RAS inhibitor, Ang-(1-12) was converted into Ang I (2%), Ang II (69%), Ang-(1-7) (5%), and Ang-(1-4) (2%). In the absence of all RAS inhibitor, only 22% of Ang-(1-12) was unmetabolized, whereas, in the presence of the all RAS inhibitors, 98% of Ang-(1-12) remained intact. The relative contribution of selective inhibition of ACE and chymase enzyme showed that Ang-(1-12) was primarily converted into Ang II (65%) by chymase while its hydrolysis into Ang II by ACE was significantly lower or undetectable. PMID:22180785 </p> <p>Although angiotensin II (Ang II)-forming enzymatic activity in the human left cardiac ventricle is minimally inhibited by angiotensin I (Ang I) converting enzyme inhibitors, over 75% of this activity is inhibited by serine proteinase inhibitors. The authors report the identification and characterization of the major Ang II-forming, neutral serine proteinase, from left ventricular tissues of the human heart. A 115,150-fold purification from human cardiac membranes yielded a purified protein with an Mr of 30,000 by sodium dodecyl sulfate-polyacrylamide gel electrophoresis. Based upon its amino-terminal sequence, the major human cardiac Ang II-forming proteinase appears to be a novel member of the chymase subfamily of chymotrypsin-like serine proteinases. Human heart chymase was completely inhibited by the serine proteinase inhibitors, soybean trypsin inhibitor, phenylmethylsulfonyl fluoride, and chymostatin. It was partially inhibited by p-tosyl-L-phenylalanine chloromethyl ketone, but was not inhibited by p-tosyl-L-lysine chloromethyl ketone, and aprotinin. Also, human heart chymase was not inhibited by inhibitors of the other three classes of proteinases. Human heart chymase has a high specificity for the conversion of Ang I to Ang II and the Ang I-carboxyl-terminal dipeptide His-Leu. Human heart chymase did not degrade several peptide hormones, including Ang II, bradykinin, and vasoactive intestinal peptide, nor did it form Ang II from angiotensinogen. The high substrate specificity of human heart chymase for Ang I distinguishes it from other Ang II-forming enzymes including Ang I converting enzyme, tonin, kallikrein, cathepsin G, and other known chymases. PMID:2266130 </p> <p>This study was undertaken to confirm a previous preliminary observation that hog pancreas kallikrein (EC 3.4.21.35) directly liberated an angiotensin-like substance from human plasma protein Cohn fraction IV-4 at an acidic pH of 4.0-5.0. The amino acid composition of the isolated pressor substance (residues/mol) was: Asp, 1.03; Val, 1.03; Ile, 1.00; Tyr, 0.69; Phe, 1.04; His, 0.91; Arg, 0.86; Pro, 0.86. This composition was identical with that of angiotensin. Since the reaction mixture was not contaminated with common proteolytic enzymes, such as trypsin, chymotrypsin, renin, cathepsin D and proangiotensin-converting enzyme, and other enzymes activated by kallikrein, it is clear that hog kallikrein directly produces angiotensin in vitro.

PMID:15283675 Angiotensin peptides are metabolized by several subsequent enzymatic steps: First, renin cleaves angiotensinogen, into angiotensin I (Ang I). Ang I can be metabolized by angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) resulting in the production of the bioactive octapeptide angiotensin II (Ang II), which interacts with AT1 and AT2 receptors. Alternatively, it can be processed first by ACE2 to the inactive peptide Ang-(1–9) and then by ACE to Ang-(1–7) or by neutral endopeptidase 24.11 (NEP) or prolylendopeptidase (PREP) directly to Ang-(1–7).

PMID:17630322 Chronic activation of the myocardial renin angiotensin system (RAS) elevates the local level of angiotensin II (Ang II) thereby inducing pathological cardiac hypertrophy, which contributes to heart failure. The authors report a novel paracrine mechanism between cardiac fibroblasts (CF)s and cardiomyocytes whereby Ang II induces pathological cardiac hypertrophy. In cultured rat CFs, Ang II treatment enhanced exosome release via the activation of Ang II receptor types 1 (AT1R) and 2 (AT2R), whereas lipopolysaccharide, insulin, endothelin (ET)-1, transforming growth factor beta (TGFbeta)1 or hydrogen peroxide did not. PMID:26497614 ANG (1-7) acts primarily via the G protein-coupled receptor MAS1, and forms ANG (1-5), which signals via MRGPRD.

PMID:32333398 The study investigated whether a vasodepressor effect of Ang-(1-7) could be unmasked acutely in conscious spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) against a background of angiotensin II type 1 (AT1) receptor blockade. Mean arterial pressure (MAP) and heart rate were measured over a 5-day protocol in various groups of rats randomized to receive the following drug combinations: saline, AT1 receptor (AT1R) antagonist candesartan (0.01 or 0.1 mg/kg IV) alone, Ang-(1-7) (5 pmol/min) alone, candesartan plus Ang-(1-7), and candesartan plus Ang-(1-7) and angiotensin II type 2 (AT2) receptor (AT2R) antagonist PD123319 (50 microg/kg per minute). In Wistar-Kyoto (WKY) rats, saline, Ang-(1-7), or candesartan alone caused no significant alteration in MAP, whereas Ang-(1-7) coadministered with candesartan caused a marked, sustained reduction in MAP. A similar unmasking of a vasodepressor response to Ang-(1-7) during AT1R blockade was observed in SHR. Moreover, the AT(2)R antagonist PD123319 markedly attenuated the enhanced depressor response evoked by the Ang-(1-7)/candesartan combination in SHR and WKY rats. In separate experiments, the bradykinin type 2 receptor antagonist HOE 140 (100 microg/kg IV) or the NO synthase inhibitor Nomega-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester (1 mg/kg IV) abolished the depressor effect of Ang-(1-7) in the presence of candesartan. Collectively, these results suggest that Ang-(1-7) evoked a depressor response during AT1R blockade via activation of AT2R, which involves the bradykinin-NO cascade.

In vitro, angiotensin-(1-9) decreased cell death in isolated neonatal rat ventricular cardiomyocytes subjected to simulated ischemia/reperfusion. The cardioprotective effects of angiotensin-(1-9) were blocked by PD123319 (AT2R antagonist) and Akt inhibitor but not by A779 (Mas antagonist). Angiotensin-(1-9) limits reperfusion-induced cell death by an AT2R- and Akt-dependent mechanism.

It has been reported that Ang-(1-7) and Ang-(1-9) stimulate the secretion of atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) via Mas receptor (Mas R) and Ang II type 2 receptor (AT2R), respectively. The effect of Ang-(1-5) on ANP secretion was investigated using isolated perfused beating rat atria. Ang-(1-5) stimulated high pacing frequency-induced ANP secretion in a dose-dependent manner. Ang-(1-5)-induced ANP secretion was attenuated by the pretreatment with an antagonist of Mas R (A-779) but not by an antagonist of AT1R (losartan) or AT2R (PD123,319).

Ang-(1-7) elevates cAMP concentration in primary cells, such as endothelial or mesangial cells. Using cAMP as readout in receptor-transfected human embryonic kidney (HEK293) cells, the study provided pharmacological proof that Mas is a functional receptor for Ang-(1-7).

In the present study, serum activities of RAS peptidases were analyzed to evaluate the existence of sexual differences, with a possible different pattern in pre- and post-andropausal/post-menopausal participants.

PMID:17630322 Chronic activation of the myocardial renin angiotensin system (RAS) elevates the local level of angiotensin II (Ang II) thereby inducing pathological cardiac hypertrophy, which contributes to heart failure. The authors report a novel paracrine mechanism between cardiac fibroblasts (CF)s and cardiomyocytes whereby Ang II induces pathological cardiac hypertrophy in rats. In cultured CFs, Ang II treatment enhanced exosome release via the activation of Ang II receptor types 1 (AT1R) and 2 (AT2R), whereas lipopolysaccharide, insulin, endothelin (ET)-1, transforming growth factor beta (TGFbeta)1 or hydrogen peroxide did not. PMID:26497614 Both, ANG II and ANG IV act primarily via the angiotensin II receptor type 1 (AGTR1).

The study tested whether this could be mediated indirectly through an interaction with the angiotensin II type 1 receptor, AT1. In transfected mammalian cells, Mas was not activated by angiotensin II; however, AT1 receptor-mediated, angiotensin II-induced production of inositol phosphates and mobilization of intracellular Ca2+ was diminished by 50% after coexpression of Mas, despite a concomitant increase in angiotensin II binding capacity. Mas and the AT1 receptor formed a constitutive hetero-oligomeric complex that was unaffected by the presence of agonists or antagonists of the 2 receptors. In vivo, Mas acts as an antagonist of the AT1 receptor; mice lacking the Mas gene show enhanced angiotensin II-mediated vasoconstriction in mesenteric microvessels. These results demonstrate that Mas can hetero-oligomerize with the AT1 receptor and by so doing inhibit the actions of angiotensin II.

This effect was abolished in Mas-/-mice. PMID:18026570 </p> <p>ACE2 alternatively converts angiotensin (Ang) II into Ang-(1-7) and Ang I into Ang-(1-9). The study investigated the influence of Ang-(1-9) on stasis-induced venous thrombosis in the rat. The contribution of coagulation and fibrinolytic systems, angiotensin receptor type 1 (AT1) and MAS receptor in the mode of Ang-(1-9) action was also determined. Ang-(1-9) enhanced thrombosis development, decreased plasma concentration of tissue plasminogen activator and increased the level of its inhibitor (PAI-1). The action of Ang-(1-9) was reversed by selective antagonist of AT1 receptor, but not Ang-(1-7) antagonist. Ang-(1-9) did not bind to the AT1 receptor. Ang-(1-9) enhances venous thrombosis in the rat because of the impairment of fibrinolysis. The prothrombotic effect of Ang-(1-9) is mediated by Ang II acting via the AT1 receptor.

Incubation of the cells with AI1 resulted in the characteristic dose-dependent increase in aldosterone production. AT1 receptor antagonism inhibited the AII-induced aldosterone production, whereas AT2 receptor antagonism had no significant effect. The studies show that the actions of AI1 on intracellular signalling systems and steroidogenesis in the adrenal glomerulosa cell are mediated by type 1 angiotensin II receptors.
