Handling Instructions Technical Support

Angiotensin II human (Angiotensin II) acetate is a vasoconstrictor and a major bioactive peptide of the renin/angiotensin system. Angiotensin II human acetate plays a central role in regulating human blood pressure, which is mainly mediated by interactions between Angiotensin II and the G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) Angiotensin II type 1 receptor (AT1R) and Angiotensin II type 2 receptor (AT2R). Angiotensin II human acetate stimulates sympathetic nervous stimulation, increases aldosterone biosynthesis and renal actions. Angiotensin II human acetate induces growth of vascular smooth muscle cells, increases collagen type I and III synthesis in fibroblasts, leading to thickening of the vascular wall and myocardium, and fibrosis. Angiotensin II human acetate also induces apoptosis. Angiotensin II human acetate induces capillary formation from endothelial cells via the LOX-1 dependent redox-sensitive pathway.

    IC50 & Target

    AT2 Receptor

     

    AT1 Receptor

     

    In Vitro

    Most of the known actions of Angiotensin II (Ang II) human acetate are mediated by AT1 receptors, the AT2 receptor contributes to the regulation of blood pressure and renal function[1].
    Angiotensin II human acetate raises blood pressure (BP) by a number of actions, the most important ones being vasoconstriction, sympathetic nervous stimulation, increased aldosterone biosynthesis and renal actions. Other Angiotensin II human acetate actions include induction of growth, cell migration, and mitosis of vascular smooth muscle cells, increased synthesis of collagen type I and III in fibroblasts, leading to thickening of the vascular wall and myocardium, and fibrosis. These actions are mediated by type 1 Ang II receptors (AT1)[2].
    Angiotensin II (1 nM) induces the expression of LOX-1 and VEGF and enhances capillary formation from human coronary endothelial cells in Matrigel assay. Angiotensin II -mediated expression of LOX-1 and VEGF, capillary formation, intracellular reactive oxygen species generation, and phosphorylation of p38 as well as p44/42 mitogen-activated protein kinases, were suppressed by anti-LOX-1 antibody, nicotinamide-adenine dinucleotide phosphate oxidase inhibitor apocynin and the Ang II type 1 receptor blocker Losartan, but not by the Ang II type 2 receptor blocker PD123319[3].

    In Vivo

    Angiotensin II human (acetate) can be used to induce models of hypertension, cardiac hypertrophy and abdominal aortic aneurysm[7][8][9][10][11].

    Angiotensin II (acetate) is internalized by various cell types through receptor-mediated endocytosis and is highly enriched in tissues such as the heart, kidney, and adrenal glands. The concentration in skeletal muscle tissue is 8%-41% of the plasma concentration, 64%-150% in the heart, 340%-550% in the kidney, and as high as 680%-2100% in the adrenal gland. It takes only about 5 minutes for Angiotensin II (acetate) in plasma to reach a steady-state concentration, while it takes 30-60 minutes to reach a steady-state concentration in tissues. The half-life of Angiotensin II (acetate) in the circulation system is extremely short (about 0.5 minutes), while in the heart, kidney, and adrenal tissues, the in vivo half-life of Angiotensin II (acetate) formed after endocytosis is significantly extended to about 15 minutes[10].
    1. Induction of hypertension[7]
    Background
    Angiotensin II human induces hypertension by activating AT1 receptors, leading to vasoconstriction, sodium and water retention, sympathetic nervous system activation, and oxidative stress.
    Specific Modeling Methods

    Administration: 800 ng/kg/min, 0.003 mL/min • 7 days • sc, osmotic pump implanted subcutaneously
    Note
    Effect of gender: Chronic ANG II-induced hypertension differs by gender in awake mice. Female mice may be protected from the ANG II-induced increase in blood pressure.
    Modeling Indicators
    Key Factor: Blood pressure ↑ on day 7, blood pressure in male was greater than in female.

    Specific Modeling Methods
    Mice: C57/BL6J • male • 8 wk old &bull
    Administration: 2 μg/kg/min • 4 weeks • sc, osmotic pump implanted subcutaneously

    3. Abdominal aortic aneurysm model[11]
    Pathogenic mechanism
    Angiotensin II induces atherosclerosis by stimulating monocyte recruitment, macrophage activation, and enhancing oxidative stress, ultimately leading to local dilation and thinning of the abdominal aorta in mice and the formation of abdominal aortic aneurysm.
    Specific modeling method
    Mice: ApoE–/– mice • female • 6-month-old
    Administration: 500 or 1000 ng/min/kg • s.c. • 28 days
    Modeling success index
    Cellular changes: Increased in lipid-laden macrophages and lymphocytes in the aortic intima.
    Phenotype observation: There are a large number of atherosclerotic lesions in the mice. The size of the abdominal area of the aorta is significantly increased, there is a large amount of adventitial tissue, and blood clots exist in the adventitial tissue, and new blood vessels appear on the outer surface.

    Help & FAQs
    • Do most proteins show cross-species activity?

      Species cross-reactivity must be investigated individually for each product. Many human cytokines will produce a nice response in mouse cell lines, and many mouse proteins will show activity on human cells. Other proteins may have a lower specific activity when used in the opposite species.
