The octapeptide angiotensin II mediates the physiological actions of the renin-angiotensin system through activation of several angiotensin II receptor (AT) subtypes, in particular AT1 (AT1a and AT1b in the case of rodents). Although we and others have generated mutant mice in which the AT1a gene was disrupted, the function of mouse AT1 remains to be fully elucidated, due to the lack of effective tools involving antibodies against AT1 for detecting biological responses in cellular conditions. To avoid these problems, we constructed the hemagglutinin (HA)-tagged mouse AT1a, and stably introduced this recombinant receptor into human embryonic kidney 293-T cells. Radioligand binding of [(125)I] angiotensin II to AT1a was specific, saturable, and reversible. Scatchard analysis demonstrated that the transfected receptor had a dissociation constant of 1.7 nM with a density of 1.2 x 10(5) sites/cells. Angiotensin II stimulated a rapid increase in cytosolic free calcium, and angiotensin II-induced phosphorylation of extracellular signal-regulated kinases (Erk) was found in a dose-dependent manner. After solubilization, Western blot analysis showed specific interactions between an anti-HA antibody and HA-tagged mouse AT1a. Furthermore, a significant proportion of HA-tagged mouse AT1a was specifically immunoprecipitated with this antibody. In the immunocytochemical and electronmicroscopic studies, treatment of this cell line with angiotensin II resulted in decrease in signals of the surface receptors. Based on these results, the cell line established here provides an excellent tool for studying angiotensin II actions mediated through mouse AT1a, at sub-nanomolar concentrations.

D007700 Kinetics The rate dynamics in chemical or physical systems.
D008854 Microscopy, Electron Microscopy using an electron beam, instead of light, to visualize the sample, thereby allowing much greater magnification. The interactions of ELECTRONS with specimens are used to provide information about the fine structure of that specimen. In TRANSMISSION ELECTRON MICROSCOPY the reactions of the electrons that are transmitted through the specimen are imaged. In SCANNING ELECTRON MICROSCOPY an electron beam falls at a non-normal angle on the specimen and the image is derived from the reactions occurring above the plane of the specimen. Electron Microscopy
