Modulation de l’expression du récepteur B1 des kinines par l’angiotensine II et l’endothéline-1 dans des cellules musculaires lisses vasculaires
Oxidative stress is involved in the overexpression of kinin B1 receptor (B1R) in various models of diabetes and hypertension. Since angiotensin II (Ang II) and endothelin-1 (ET-1) are pro-oxidative peptides involved in cardiovascular diseases, their contribution in increasing the expression of B1R was examined in vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMC). QRT-PCR and Western blot analysis were used to measure the expression of B1R in VSMC derived from A10 cell line and the aorta of Sprague-Dawley rats. This study shows that Ang II increases the expression of B1R (mRNA and protein) in a concentration- and time-dependent manner (maximum 1 μM between 3-6 h). This increase involves AT1 receptor, PI3K and NF-κB, but not AT2 receptor and ERK1/2. Moreover, ETA receptor is involved in the effect of Ang II at 6-8 h but not at 1-4 h. However, ET-1 increases expression of B1R (maximum 2-4 h) via stimulation of ETA and ETB receptors. Ang II and ET-1-induced increase expression of B1R is blocked by antioxidants (N-acetyl-L-cysteine and diphenyleneiodonium). These results suggest that Ang II induces B1R in VSMC by AT1 receptor in the first phase and by releasing ET-1 (predominantly by ETA receptor) in the late phase, via oxidative stress and activation of PI3K and NF-κB. These results clarify the mechanism involved in the overexpression of B1R which has adverse effects in diabetes and hypertension.
