          Abstract

          For several years it was believed that angiotensin II (Ang II) alone mediated the effects of the renin-angiotensin system. However, it has been observed that other peptides of this system, such as angiotensin-(1-7) (Ang-(1-7)), present biological activity. The effect of Ang II and Ang-(1-7) on renal sodium excretion has been associated, at least in part, with modulation of proximal tubule sodium reabsorption. In the present review, we discuss the evidence for the involvement of Na+-ATPase, called the second sodium pump, as a target for the actions of these compounds in the regulation of proximal tubule sodium reabsorption.

            Differential regulation of angiotensin peptide levels in plasma and kidney of the rat.

            We compared the effects of the converting enzyme inhibitor perindopril on components of the renin-angiotensin system in plasma and kidney of male Sprague-Dawley rats administered perindopril in their drinking water at two doses (1.4 and 4.2 mg/kg) over 7 days. Eight angiotensin peptides were measured in plasma and kidney: angiotensin-(1-7), angiotensin II, angiotensin-(1-9), angiotensin I, angiotensin-(2-7), angiotensin III, angiotensin-(2-9), and angiotensin-(2-10). In addition, angiotensin converting enzyme activity, renin, and angiotensinogen were measured in plasma, and renin, angiotensinogen, and their respective messenger RNAs were measured in kidney; angiotensinogen messenger RNA was also measured in liver. In plasma, the highest dose of perindopril reduced angiotensin converting enzyme activity to 11% of control, increased renin 200-fold, reduced angiotensinogen to 11% of control, increased angiotensin-(1-7), angiotensin I, angiotensin-(2-7), and angiotensin-(2-10) levels 25-, 9-, 10-, and 13-fold, respectively; angiotensin II levels were not significantly different from control. By contrast, for the kidney, angiotensin-(1-7), angiotensin I, angiotensin-(2-7), and angiotensin-(2-10) levels did not increase; angiotensin II levels fell to 14% of control, and angiotensinogen fell to 12% of control. Kidney renin messenger RNA levels increased 12-fold, but renal renin content and angiotensinogen messenger RNA levels in kidney and liver were not influenced by perindopril treatment. These results demonstrate a differential regulation of angiotensin peptides in plasma and kidney and provide direct support for the proposal that the cardiovascular effects of converting enzyme inhibitors depend on modulation of tissue angiotensin systems. Moreover, the failure of kidney angiotensin I levels to increase with perindopril treatment, taken together with the fall in kidney angiotensinogen levels, suggests that angiotensinogen may be a major rate-limiting determinant of angiotensin peptide levels in the kidney.

              Evidence for a physiological role of angiotensin-(1-7) in the control of hydroelectrolyte balance.

              In this study we evaluated the possibility that angiotensin-(1-7) [Ang-(1-7)] acts as an endogenous osmoregulatory peptide by determining the effect of acute administration of its selective antagonist [D-Ala7]Ang-(1-7) (A-779) on renal function parameters in rats. In addition, we investigated the physiological mechanisms involved in the antidiuretic effect of Ang-(1-7). The antidiuretic effect of Ang-(1-7) (40 pmol/0.05 mL per 100 g BW) in water-loaded rats was completely blocked by A-779 (vehicle-treated, 3.34 +/- 0.43 mL/h; Ang-(1-7), 1.48 +/- 0.23; A-779, 2.72 +/- 0.35; Ang-(1-7) plus A-779, 3.26 +/- 0.49). In contrast, the antidiuretic effect of Ang-(1-7) was not significantly changed by a vasopressin V2 receptor antagonist in a dose that completely blocked the antidiuresis produced by an equipotent dose of vasopressin. In addition, Ang-(1-7) administration did not significantly change vasopressin plasma levels in water-loaded rats. The antidiuretic effect of Ang-(1-7) in water-loaded rats was associated with a reduction of creatinine clearance (0.68 +/- 0.04 versus 1.38 +/- 0.32 mL/min in vehicle-treated rats, P <.05) and an increase in urine osmolality (266.8 +/- 32.7 versus 182.8 +/- 14 mOsm/kg in vehicle-treated rats, P <.05). An effect of Ang-(1-7) in tubular water transport was demonstrated in vitro by a fourfold increase in the hydraulic conductivity of inner medullary collecting ducts in the presence of 1 nmol/L Ang-(1-7). Subcutaneous administration of A-779 (2.3 to 9.2 nmol/100 g) produced a significant increase in urine volume (4.6 nmol/100 g, 0.45 +/- 0.12 mL/h; vehicle-treated rats, 0.16 +/- 0.03 mL/h; P <.05) comparable to that of acute administration of a vasopressin V2 receptor antagonist. The diuretic effect of A-779 was associated with an increase in creatinine clearance and decrease in urine osmolality. In contrast, no significant effects on urine volume were observed after systemic administration of angiotensin subtype 1 or 2 receptor antagonists (DuP 753 and CGP 42112A, respectively). These findings suggest that endogenous Ang-(1-7), acting on specific receptors, participates in the control of hydroelectrolyte balance by influencing especially water excretion.
