Angiotensin II (Ang II) provokes rapid internalisation of its receptor from plasma membranes in isolated rat hepatocytes. After 10 min stimulation with Ang II, plasma membrane lost about 60% of its 125I-Ang II-binding capacity. Internalisation was blocked by phenylarsine oxide (PhAsO), whereas okadaic acid, which markedly reduced the sustained phase of calcium mobilization, did not have a preventive effect on Ang II–receptor complex sequestration. These data suggest that Ang II receptor internalisation is probably independent of a phosphorylation/dephosphorylation cycle of critical serine/threonine residues in the receptor molecule. To establish a relationship between sequestration of the Ang II receptor and the physical properties of the Ang II-binding sites, 125I-Ang II–receptor complex profiles were analysed by isoelectric focusing. In plasma membrane preparations two predominant Ang II-binding sites, migrating to pI 6·8 and 6·5 were found. After exposure to Ang II, cells lost 125I-Ang II-binding capacity to the Ang II–receptor complex migrating at pI 6·8 which was prevented in PhAsO-treated cells. Pretreatment of hepatocytes with okadaic acid did not modify Ang II–receptor complex profiles, indicating that the binding sites corresponding to pI 6·5 and pI 6·8 do not represent a phosphorylated and/or non-phosphorylated form of the Ang II receptor. The results show that the Ang II–receptor complex isoform at pI 6·8 represents a functional form of the type-1 Ang II receptor. Further studies are necessary to identify the Ang II-related nature of the binding sites corresponding to pI 6·5. Journal of Endocrinology (1997) 152, 407–412

1. Platelets were prepared from peripheral venous blood on iso-osmotic density gradients of Percoll, resulting in a good recovery of cells (50–80%) which were relatively free of contaminating blood cells (erythrocyte <0.1%, leucocyte <0.1%). 2. At 22°C, specific binding of 125labelled angiotensin II (300 pmol/l) was time and temperature dependent, saturable, reversible and linear with cell concentration. 3. Scatchard analysis of saturation curves revealed a single class of binding sites with Kd 1.5 ± 0.4 × 10−10 mol/l and total binding capacity 6.3 ± 1.2 receptorslplatelet. Similar values (Kd 2.4 ± 0.7 × 10−10 mol/l and binding capacity 6.5 ± 1.0 receptors/cell) were obtained by displacement analysis. From kinetic studies the forward and reverse rate constants were 3.1 × 108 mol min−1 1−1 and 3.6 × 10−2/min giving a Kd of 1.2 × 10−10mol/l. 4. The relative binding potencies for angiotensin I1 and analogues were: [Sar1, Thr8]ANC II > ANG II > ANG III > [Sar1, Ala8]ANG II > ANG I. 5. Incubation with an extracellular marker (51Cr-labelled EDTA) demonstrated that binding of angiotensin II to platelets was not due to free fluid endocytosis.

Rat aortic smooth muscle cells were isolated and maintained in primary culture. After 2-3 days, cells recovered their contractile phenotype and could be induced to contract in response to vasopressin and angiotensin II. Vasopressin- and angiotensin-specific binding sites were detected on these cells, using tritiated Lys8-vasopressin, Asn1-Val5-angiotensin II, and Sarc1-Ile8-angiotensin II. Vasopressin binding sites had Kd values of 30 and 12 nM for Lys8-and Arg8-vasopressin, respectively, and a maximal binding capacity of 25,000 sites/cell. They displayed several of the expected characteristics of vasopressin receptors involved in the vasopressor response in vivo. A highly significant correlation was found between the relative agonistic or antagonistic vasopressor potencies of a series of vasopressin structural analogues and their relative abilities to inhibit [3H]vasopressin binding to aortic smooth muscle cells. Specific binding sites for Asn1-Val5-angiotensin II and Sarc1-Ile8-angiotensin II had the following characteristics: Kd = 2.3 and 1.3 nM, respectively; maximal capacity: 50,000 sites/cell. Vasopressin and angiotensin did not modify the intracellular cyclic AMP content of aortic smooth muscle cells.

Binding Data

ABSTRACT A homologous population of specific angiotensin II receptors is present on the cell surface of isolated rabbit hepatocytes. The binding characteristics of [3H]angiotensin II to the cells were: association rate constant (K+1) 0·08 l/nmol per min and dissociation rate constant (K−1) 1·9/min, yielding a dissociation constant (Kd) of 24 nmol/l. A very similar Kd (32 nmol/l) has been derived from saturation binding data which indicate a maximal binding capacity of about 200 000 sites/cell. Analysis of the association binding data to purified liver plasma membranes indicated a Kd of 6 nmol/l in the absence and 30 nmol/l in the presence of GTP. Dissociation was clearly dependent upon the presence of the nucleotide, which shifted the K−1 from 0·12/min to 0·42/min. The studied binding sites are very likely to be involved in the glycogenolytic action of angiotensin II, since a highly significant correlation was established between the biological activity (activation of glycogen phosphorylase) and the binding affinity of a series of agonistic analogues. The reported characteristics of the rabbit hepatic angiotensin II receptors show much similarity with those of rat liver. Journal of Endocrinology (1989) 123, 131–136
