New Zealand White rabbits were used as a model of autologous venous bypass grafting. A section of jugular vein was sutured into the divided common carotid artery. The animals were euthanized one month after surgery. At that time histopathology showed myointimal thickening of the graft segments. Angiotensin II receptor assays showed that the AT1 receptor was present in the grafts, concentrated in the intima. These localized receptors were shown to be similar to the prototypic vascular AT1 receptor through the use of the specific antagonist DuP 753.

D002339 Carotid Arteries Either of the two principal arteries on both sides of the neck that supply blood to the head and neck; each divides into two branches, the internal carotid artery and the external carotid artery. Arteries, Carotid,Artery, Carotid,Carotid Artery
D000804 Angiotensin II An octapeptide that is a potent but labile vasoconstrictor. It is produced from angiotensin I after the removal of two amino acids at the C-terminal by ANGIOTENSIN CONVERTING ENZYME. The amino acid in position 5 varies in different species. To block VASOCONSTRICTION and HYPERTENSION effect of angiotensin II, patients are often treated with ACE INHIBITORS or with ANGIOTENSIN II TYPE 1 RECEPTOR BLOCKERS.
