- `Angiotensin I` acts as the substrate for Angiotensin-Converting Enzyme (ACE), which catalyzes its conversion to `Angiotensin II`; the Km value for ACE-catalyzed hydrolysis of `Angiotensin I` is approximately 3.5 μM [1]
- `Angiotensin II` binds to two main receptors: Type 1 Angiotensin Receptor (AT1R) and Type 2 Angiotensin Receptor (AT2R); the EC50 for `Angiotensin II`-induced AT1R activation (measured by intracellular Ca²⁺ release) is ~1 nM, and for AT2R activation is ~10 nM [3] |

| ln Vitro |
Angiotensin II is a powerful vasoconstrictor and a natural octapeptide hormone in the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (RAAS). Angiotensin II plays critical roles in cardiovascular, nervous system, and renal physiology, such as blood pressure regulation, thirst sensation, baroreceptor reflex response, determination of renal blood flow and glomerular filtration rate, and electrolyte and free water homeostasis [2].
- Incubation of purified ACE with `Angiotensin I` (10 μM) in Tris-HCl buffer (pH 7.4) at 37°C resulted in ~85% conversion to `Angiotensin II` within 30 minutes; the reaction was inhibited by captopril (an ACE inhibitor) with an IC50 of 0.1 μM [1] - In isolated rat aortic smooth muscle cells, treatment with `Angiotensin II` (1-100 nM) induced dose-dependent cell contraction; the maximum contraction (100% relative to KCl-induced contraction) was achieved at 10 nM `Angiotensin II`, and this effect was blocked by losartan (an AT1R antagonist) [3] - In human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs), `Angiotensin II` (10 nM) increased the expression of vascular cell adhesion molecule-1 (VCAM-1) by 2.3-fold (measured by Western blot) compared to the control group [3] |
| ln Vivo |
- In anesthetized dogs, intravenous (IV) infusion of `Angiotensin I` (0.5 μg/kg/min) for 10 minutes increased plasma `Angiotensin II` concentration from baseline (12 ± 3 pg/mL) to 89 ± 11 pg/mL, accompanied by a 25 ± 4 mmHg increase in mean arterial pressure (MAP) [1]
- In a systematic review of 23 clinical studies (n=1,245 patients with refractory hypotension), IV administration of `Angiotensin II` (initial dose: 20 ng/kg/min, titrated up to 200 ng/kg/min) increased MAP by ≥20 mmHg in 78% of patients within 1 hour; the response was sustained for 48 ± 12 hours in 65% of responders [2] - In Sprague-Dawley rats, subcutaneous injection of `Angiotensin II` (200 ng/kg/day) for 2 weeks induced hypertension (MAP increased from 110 ± 5 mmHg to 155 ± 8 mmHg) and mild left ventricular hypertrophy (heart weight/body weight ratio increased by 18% vs. control) [3] |
| Enzyme Assay |
- For ACE activity assay (to measure `Angiotensin I` conversion): ACE was extracted from rabbit lung tissue and purified by ion-exchange chromatography. The reaction mixture contained 50 mM Tris-HCl (pH 7.4), 10 μM `Angiotensin I`, 100 mM NaCl, and 0.1 U/mL purified ACE. The mixture was incubated at 37°C for 0-60 minutes, and the amount of `Angiotensin II` produced was quantified by radioimmunoassay (RIA) using a specific antibody against `Angiotensin II`. The reaction rate was calculated based on the linear phase of `Angiotensin II` accumulation (0-30 minutes) [1]
- For AT1R binding assay: Membranes were prepared from HEK293 cells stably expressing human AT1R. The binding reaction contained 50 mM Tris-HCl (pH 7.4), 10 mM MgCl₂, 0.1% BSA, 0.5 nM [³H]-`Angiotensin II`, and serial concentrations of unlabeled `Angiotensin II` (0.1 nM-1 μM). The mixture was incubated at 25°C for 60 minutes, then filtered through glass fiber filters. Bound radioactivity was measured by liquid scintillation counting. Non-specific binding was determined in the presence of 1 μM losartan, and the dissociation constant (Kd) of `Angiotensin II` for AT1R was calculated as 0.8 nM [3] |
| Animal Protocol |
- For `Angiotensin I`-induced hemodynamic study in dogs: Adult male beagles (8-10 kg) were anesthetized with sodium pentobarbital (30 mg/kg, IV). A femoral artery catheter was inserted to measure MAP, and a femoral vein catheter was used for drug infusion. `Angiotensin I` was dissolved in 0.9% saline to a concentration of 10 μg/mL, and infused IV at doses of 0.1, 0.5, and 1.0 μg/kg/min, each dose maintained for 10 minutes. MAP and heart rate were recorded every 2 minutes during the infusion [1]
- For `Angiotensin II`-induced hypertension study in rats: Male Sprague-Dawley rats (250-300 g) were implanted with subcutaneous osmotic minipumps. `Angiotensin II` was dissolved in 0.9% saline containing 0.1% acetic acid to a concentration of 0.2 mg/mL, and the minipump was set to deliver 1 μL/h (equivalent to 200 ng/kg/day) for 2 weeks. MAP was measured weekly using a non-invasive tail-cuff system, and heart weight was recorded at the end of the study [3] |
| ADME/Pharmacokinetics |
Angiotensin I has a short plasma half-life in the human body (about 1 minute); it is rapidly hydrolyzed by ACE in lung and vascular endothelial cells to angiotensin II [1]
- Angiotensin II has a plasma half-life of about 1-2 minutes in the human body; it is metabolized by angiotensinases (such as aminopeptidase A, aminopeptidase N) into inactive fragments (such as angiotensin II (1-7), angiotensin II (3-8)), which are excreted in urine [3] - Intravenous injection of angiotensin II (20 ng/kg/min) in the human body can reach a steady-state plasma concentration of about 50 pg/mL within 10 minutes; oral absorption has not been observed due to rapid degradation by gastrointestinal peptidases [2] |
| Toxicity/Toxicokinetics |
In humans, intravenous administration of angiotensin II (dose > 200 ng/kg/min) may cause dose-dependent hypertension (mean arterial pressure > 180 mmHg), headache, and palpitations; these symptoms are relieved within 5 minutes after dose reduction or discontinuation [2]
- Angiotensin II has a plasma protein binding rate of approximately 90% in humans, mainly binding to albumin; no significant hepatotoxicity or nephrotoxicity was observed at therapeutic doses (20-200 ng/kg/min) [3] - In dogs, intravenous infusion of angiotensin I (5 μg/kg/min) for 1 hour caused transient renal vasoconstriction (reduction of renal blood flow by 30%), but no permanent kidney damage was detected [1] |

| Additional Infomation |
Angiotensin I is a decapeptide (sequence: Asp-Arg-Val-Tyr-Ile-His-Pro-Phe-His-Leu) produced by the cleavage of angiotensinogen (a liver-derived protein) by renin [1]
- Angiotensin II is an octapeptide (sequence: Asp-Arg-Val-Tyr-Ile-His-Pro-Phe) and is the major effector molecule of the renin-angiotensin system (RAS), regulating blood pressure, fluid balance, and vascular tone [3] - In clinical practice, angiotensin II (intravenous preparation) is approved for the treatment of refractory hypotension in adults, particularly in cases where fluid resuscitation and vasopressors (such as norepinephrine) are ineffective [2] |
