1 15153558 Use of the nephrin promoter to target the podocytes resulted in an expression of the hAT1 at a level roughly two times higher than the endogenous AT1 throughout life.
2 16788142 To investigate the renal protective effects of AT1R blockade, we treated young (6-7 wk old) male Ren2 rats with valsartan (Ren2-V; 30 mg/kg) for 3 wk and measured urine albumin, kidney malondialdehyde (MDA), RAS component mRNAs, and NADPH oxidase subunits (gp91(phox) and Rac1) compared with age-matched untreated Ren2 and Sprague-Dawley (S-D) rats.
3 16788142 AT1R blockade was also associated with increased angiotensin-converting enzyme-2 and neprilysin expression, demonstrating a beneficial shift in balance of renal RAS.
4 18773185 This study demonstrates that angiotensin II (Ang II) caused a reactive oxygen species (ROS)-dependent rearrangement of cortical F-actin and a migratory phenotype switch in cultured mouse podocytes with stable Ang II type 1 receptor (AT1R) expression.
5 18773185 The free radical scavenger DMTU eliminated Ang II-induced cell migration, ERM protein phosphorylation and cortical F-actin remodeling, indicating that ROS mediates the influence of Rac-1 on podocyte AT1R signaling.
6 18773185 Signaling inhibitor assay of Ang II-treated podocytes reveals that Rac-1, RhoA, and F-actin reorganization were involved in expressional regulation of alpha actinin-4 in AT1R signaling.
7 20007350 Recent work suggests renin inhibition improves proteinuria comparable to ANG type 1 receptor (AT1R) blockade (ARB).
