title: Angiotensin II receptor recognized by DuP753 regulates two distinct guanine nucleotide-binding protein signaling pathways.
abstract: The 7315c cell, derived from a rat anterior pituitary tumor, expresses an angiotensin II (AII) receptor. [3H]AII binds to 7315c membranes specifically and saturably (Kd = 2.1 +/- 0.6 x 10(-6) M, Bmax = 282 +/- 33 fmol/mg of protein). GTP diminished the affinity of the membranes for [3H]AII (Kd = 4.1 +/- 0.4 x 10(-9) M, Bmax = 210 +/- 26 fmol/mg of protein). [3H]AII binding was displaced by AII (Ki = 1.3 +/- 0.6 x 10(-9) M), angiotensin III (AIII) (Ki = 0.9 +/- 0.4 x 10(-9) M), and the nonpeptide AII antagonist DuP753 (Ki = 1.4 +/- 0.6 x 10(-8) M). In contrast, a second nonpeptide AII ligand, PD123177, did not compete for [3H]AII binding sites. In intact cells, AII and AIII stimulated inositol trisphosphate (IP3) production (EC50 = 1.1 +/- 0.6 x 10(-8) M and 1.1 +/- 0.5 x 10(-8) M, respectively); this response to AII was antagonized by DuP753 (Ki = 1.7 +/- 0.3 x 10(-7) M). Pertussis toxin treatment failed to affect the ability of AII to stimulate IP3 production. In a crude membrane preparation, GTP was required for maximal AII-induced IP3 stimulation; guanosine thio-diphosphate abolished the agonist-GTP stimulation of IP3 production, in a concentration-dependent fashion. AII and AIII also inhibited adenylyl cyclase (EC50 = 2.9 +/- 1.1 x 10(-8) M and 6.0 +/- 1.0 x 10(-8) M, respectively). DuP753 antagonized the inhibition by AII of adenylyl cyclase (Ki = 2.8 +/- 0.4 x 10(-8) M). PD123177 failed to antagonize AII-induced cyclase inhibition. Pertussis toxin treatment abolished the AII and AIII inhibition of adenylyl cyclase. GTP was required for AII-induced inhibition of adenylyl cyclase. These data suggest that, in 7315c cells, a single subtype of AII receptor, identified by DuP753, is capable of regulating two different guanine nucleotide-binding protein (G protein) signalling pathways; one G protein, which is insensitive to pertussis toxin, stimulates IP3 production and the other G protein, which is sensitive to pertussis toxin, inhibits adenylyl cyclase.
