Angiotensin I (human, mouse, rat)
Angiotensin I (Ang I) (C62H89N17O14), with the sequence H-Asp-Arg-Val-Tyr-Ile-His-Pro-Phe-His-Leu-OH, is formed by the action of renin on angiotensinogen. Renin is produced in the kidneys in response to renal sympathetic activity, decreased intrarenal blood pressure (<90mmHg systolic blood pressure) at the juxtaglomerular cells. Ang I appears to have no biological activity and exists solely as a precursor to angiotensin II (A II). Ang I is cleaved to Ang II by the angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE). Ang II increases blood pressure by stimulating the Gq protein in vascular smooth muscle cells (which in turn activates contraction by an IP3-dependent mechanism).

Animal models |
Time-dated pregnant ewes (gestational day 125 ± 5, term ~ 145 days) |
Dosage form |
5 μg/kg Intracerebroventricular injection |
Applications |
Intracerebroventricular injection of Ang I significantly increased fetal blood pressure and c-fos expression in the supraoptic nuclei (SON) and the paraventricular nuclei (PVN) in the hypothalamus, accompanied by an increase of fetal plasma arginine vasopressin (AVP). Double labeling experiments showed colocalization of AT1 receptor and c-fos expression in both SON and PVN following Ang I treatment. The results indicate that central angiotensin I increases fetal AVP neuron activity and pressor responses. |
