Angiotensin-(1–7) reverts the stimulatory effect of angiotensin II on the proximal tubule Na +-ATPase activity via a A779-sensitve receptor

Recently, we demonstrated that the stimulatory effect of Ang II on the Na +-ATPase activity in proximal tubules is reversed, in a dose-dependent manner, by Ang-(1–7) [Biochim. Biophys. Acta 1467 (2000) 189]. In the present paper, we characterized the receptor involved in this phenomenon. The preincu...

Description
Summary:Recently, we demonstrated that the stimulatory effect of Ang II on the Na +-ATPase activity in proximal tubules is reversed, in a dose-dependent manner, by Ang-(1–7) [Biochim. Biophys. Acta 1467 (2000) 189]. In the present paper, we characterized the receptor involved in this phenomenon. The preincubation of the Na +-ATPase with 10 −8 M Ang II increases the enzyme activity from 7.50±0.02 (control) to 12.40±1.50 nmol Pi mg −1 min −1 ( p
