项目摘要

DESCRIPTION (provided by applicant): Angiotensin II (Ang II) is well known for its involvement in the regulation of blood pressure and hydromineral balance, as well as in the pathogenesis of hypertension, congestive heart failure and a number of other clinical conditions. We have demonstrated that co-expression of the Angll receptors AT1 and AT2 in Xenopus oocytes resulted in AT2-mediated inhibition of the AT1-mediated IP3 production, and that the region of the 3rd ICL of AT2 that spans amino acids 240-256 is sufficient for this function. We have also shown that AT2 directly interacts with the ErbB3 receptor and has proposed that this could be one of the mechanisms by which AT2 exerts its anti-growth effects. The general goal of this research proposal is to characterize the signaling mechanisms of the Ang II receptor AT2, and elucidate the role of direct protein-protein interaction in this function. With the help of funding from AREA grant R15HL60241-01, we generated a large number of the AT2 mutants and have demonstrated two new AT2-mediated signaling mechanisms in Xenopus oocytes:a) the AT2-mediated inhibition of the ATl-mediated IP3 production, and b) AT2-mediated cGMP reduction.We have also shown that AT2 directly interacts with the ErbB3 receptor and have proposed that this could be a mechanism by which AT2 exerts its anti-growth effects. The specific aim 1 of this proposal is to identify the region of the AT2 involved in reduction of basal levels of cGMP in Xenopus oocytes, and determine whether the AT2 exerts a negative regulatory effect on the AT1 mediated increase of the cGMP in these cells. The specific aim 2 is to identify the region of the AT2 responsible for the inhibition of tyrosine phosphorylation of the insulin receptor (IR) beta chain in Chinese Hamster Ovary (CHO) cells, and determine whether this AT2-mediated inhibition of IR phosphorylation is via direct protein-protein interaction. We propose that a direct interaction between the AT2 and IR beta chain, similar to what we have seen in the case of AT2 and ErbB3 interaction, may be involved in AT2-mediated inhibition of IR signaling. We will use the AT2 mutants to determine which region of AT2 is involved in the inhibition of IR signaling in CHO cells. Thus, funding of this proposal will not only help in elucidating newly identified signaling mechanisms of Ang II, but also allow us to continue the training we have been giving to a large number of graduate and undergraduate students in cellular and molecular research at BGSU.

描述（由申请人提供）：众所周知，血管紧张素 II (Ang II) 参与血压和水矿物质平衡的调节，以及高血压、充血性心力衰竭和许多其他临床病症的发病机制。我们已经证明AngII受体AT1和AT2在非洲爪蟾卵母细胞中的共表达导致AT2介导的对AT1介导的IP3产生的抑制，并且跨越氨基酸240-256的AT2的第三个ICL的区域就足够了对于这个功能。我们还表明 AT2 直接与 ErbB3 受体相互作用，并提出这可能是 AT2 发挥其抗生长作用的机制之一。本研究计划的总体目标是表征 Ang II 受体 AT2 的信号传导机制，并阐明直接蛋白质-蛋白质相互作用在此功能中的作用。在AREA R15HL60241-01资助的帮助下，我们产生了大量的AT2突变体，并在爪蟾卵母细胞中证明了两种新的AT2介导的信号机制：a) AT2介导的对ATl介导的IP3产生的抑制， b) AT2 介导的 cGMP 减少。我们还表明 AT2 直接与 ErbB3 受体相互作用，并提出这可能是 AT2 发挥其作用的机制。抗生长作用。该提案的具体目标 1 是确定 AT2 参与爪蟾卵母细胞 cGMP 基础水平降低的区域，并确定 AT2 是否对 AT1 介导的这些细胞中 cGMP 的增加发挥负调节作用。具体目标2是确定AT2负责抑制中国仓鼠卵巢（CHO）细胞中胰岛素受体（IR）β链酪氨酸磷酸化的区域，并确定这种AT2介导的IR磷酸化抑制是否是通过直接的蛋白质-蛋白质相互作用。我们提出，AT2 和 IR β 链之间的直接相互作用，类似于我们在 AT2 和 ErbB3 相互作用的情况下所看到的，可能涉及 AT2 介导的 IR 信号传导抑制。我们将使用 AT2 突变体来确定 AT2 的哪个区域参与了 CHO 细胞中 IR 信号传导的抑制。因此，该提案的资助不仅有助于阐明新发现的 Ang II 信号传导机制，而且还使我们能够继续为 BGSU 的大量研究生和本科生提供细胞和分子研究方面的培训。
