G-Protein–Coupled Receptor Mas Is a Physiological Antagonist of the Angiotensin II Type 1 Receptor
- E. Kostenis, G. Milligan, +9 authors T. Walther
- Medicine
- Circulation
- 12 April 2005
Background—We previously identified the G-protein–coupled receptor Mas, encoded by the Mas proto-oncogene, as an endogenous receptor for the heptapeptide angiotensin-(1-7); however, the receptor is… Expand
International Union of Basic and Clinical Pharmacology. XCIX. Angiotensin Receptors: Interpreters of Pathophysiological Angiotensinergic Stimuli

- 13 May 2005
Inflammation is a key event in the development of atherosclerosis. Nuclear factor-&kgr;B (NF-&kgr;B) is important in the inflammatory response regulation. The effector peptide of the renin… Expand
Involvement of insulin-regulated aminopeptidase in the effects of the renin–angiotensin fragment angiotensin IV: a review
- Bart Stragier, D. D. Bundel, +5 authors P. Vanderheyden
- Medicine
- Heart Failure Reviews
- 1 September 2008
For decades, angiotensin (Ang) II was considered as the end product and the only bioactive peptide of the renin–angiotensin system (RAS). However, later studies revealed biological activity for other… Expand
Characterization of muscarinic receptors in human, guinea pig and rat lung.
- J. Gies, C. Bertrand, +4 authors Y. Landry
- Biology, Medicine
- The Journal of pharmacology and experimental…
- 1 July 1989
Muscarinic receptor subtypes in human, guinea pig and rat lung tissue were characterized by radioligand binding, and functional studies were carried out on guinea pig and rat tissues. Control binding… Expand
Metabolism of angiotensin II is required for its in vivo effect on dopamine release in the striatum of the rat
- Bart Stragier, S. Sarre, +4 authors Y. Michotte
- Biology, Medicine
- Journal of neurochemistry
- 1 September 2004
The effect of angiotensin (Ang) IV, an inhibitor of insulin‐regulated aminopeptidase (IRAP), on extracellular dopamine levels in the striatum of freely moving rats was examined using in vivo… Expand

- Psychology, Medicine
- Naunyn-Schmiedeberg's Archives of Pharmacology
- 14 February 2012
Drug–receptor interactions are traditionally quantified in terms of affinity and efficacy, but there is increasing awareness that the drug-on-receptor residence time also affects clinical… Expand
Agonist induction and conformational selection during activation of a G-protein-coupled receptor.

- Biology, Medicine
- Trends in pharmacological sciences
- 1 February 2003
Substitutions of Asn111 of the AT(1) angiotensin receptor and mutations of the corresponding amino acids in other G-protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) cause constitutive receptor activation. Ligand… Expand
