- Angiotensin II receptor type 1
Angiotensin II receptor, type 1 or AT1 receptor is an
angiotensin receptor . It hasvasopressor effects and regulatesaldosterone secretion. It is an important effector controllingblood pressure and volume in thecardiovascular system .It is the best elucidated angiotensin receptor.
Mechanism
The angiotensin receptor is activated by the vasoconstricting peptide angiotensin II. The activated receptor in turn couples to Gq/11 and thus activates phospholipase C and increases the cytosolic Ca2+ concentrations, which in turn triggers cellular responses such as stimulation of
protein kinase C . Activated receptor also inhibitsadenylate cyclase and activates varioustyrosine kinase s.cite journal | author = Higuchi S, Ohtsu H, Suzuki H, Shirai H, Frank GD, Eguchi S | title = Angiotensin II signal transduction through the AT1 receptor: novel insights into mechanisms and pathophysiology | journal = Clin.

The AT1 receptor mediates the major cardiovascular effects of angiotensin II. Effects include vasoconstriction,
aldosterone synthesis and secretion, increasedvasopressin secretion, cardiac hypertrophy, augmentation of peripheral noradrenergic activity, vascularsmooth muscle cells proliferation, decreased renal blood flow, renalrenin inhibition, renal tubularsodium reuptake, modulation of centralsympathetic nervous system activity, cardiac contractility, central osmocontrol andextracellular matrix formation.cite journal | author = Catt KJ, Mendelsohn FA, Millan MA, Aguilera G | title = The role of angiotensin II receptors in vascular regulation | journal = J.

The AT1 receptor may play role in the generation of
reperfusion arrhythmia s following restoration of blood flow toischemic orinfarcted myocardium.Gene
It was previously thought that a related gene, denoted as AGTR1B, existed; however, it is now believed that there is only one type 1 receptor gene in humans. At least four
transcript variant s have been described for this gene. Additional variants have been described but their full-length nature has not been determined. The entire coding sequence is contained in the terminal exon and is present in all transcript variants.cite web | title = Entrez Gene: AGTR1 angiotensin II receptor, type 1| url = http://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/sites/entrez?Db=gene&Cmd=ShowDetailView&TermToSearch=185| accessdate = ]References
