General description

Angiotensin III (Ang III) is a 7-AA bioactive peptide that is formed from the degradation of the Angiotensin II peptide by aminopeptidase A; both are derivatives of angiotensinogen and are components of the renin-angiotensin system (RAS).

Biochem/physiol Actions

Angiotensin III is an AT1 and AT2 agonist, with higher sensitivity for the AT2 receptor. Ang III has been shown to be a main effector peptide in RAS-controlled vasopresin release and a stimulator for aldosterone release.

Aldosterone is synthesized in the zona glomerulosa of the adrenal cortex under primary regulation by the renin-angiotensin system. Angiotensin II (A-II) acts through the angiotensin types 1 and 2 receptors (AT1R and AT2R). A-II is metabolized in different tissues by

The results of many studies have reported that peptides from the angiotensin family are involved in the regulation of cell growth, proliferation, cell migration, apoptosis, inflammation, differentiation, and angiogenesis, which suggests that they might play an important role in carcinogenesis.

Angiotensin (Ang) II, the main effector peptide of the renin-Ang system, increases arterial blood pressure through Ang II type 1A (AT(1a)) receptor-dependent arterial vasoconstriction and by decreasing renal salt and water excretion through extrarenal and intrarenal mechanisms. AT(2) receptors are

In angiotensin type 1 receptor-blocked rats, renal interstitial (RI) administration of des-aspartyl(1)-angiotensin II (Ang III) but not angiotensin II induces natriuresis via activation of angiotensin type 2 receptors. In the present study, renal function was documented during systemic angiotensin type
