Abstract
Arap1 is a protein that interacts with angiotensin II type 1 (AT(1)) receptors and facilitates increased AT(1) receptor surface expression in vitro. In the present study, we assessed the tissue localization and regulation of Arap1 in vivo. Arap1 was found in various mouse organs, with the highest expression in the heart, kidney, aorta, and adrenal gland. Renal Arap1 protein was restricted to the vasculature and to glomerular mesangial cells and was absent from tubular epithelia. A similar localization was found in human kidneys. To test the hypothesis that angiotensin II may control renal Arap1 expression, mice were subjected to various conditions to alter the activity of the renin-angiotensin system. A high-salt diet (4% NaCl, 7 days) upregulated Arap1 expression in mice by 47% compared with controls (0.6% NaCl, P = 0.03). Renal artery stenosis (7 days) or water restriction (48 h) suppressed Arap1 levels compared with controls (-64 and -62% in the clipped and contralateral kidney, respectively; and -50% after water restriction, P < 0.01). Angiotensin II infusion (2 μg·kg(-1)·min(-1), 7 days) reduced Arap1 mRNA levels compared with vehicle by 29% (P < 0.01), whereas AT(1) antagonism (losartan, 30 mg·kg(-1)·day(-1), 7 days) enha...Continue Reading
