Angiotensin type 1 receptor mediates renal production and conversion of prostaglandins E to Fα in conscious diabetic rats
Introduction: Previous studies demonstrated that stimulation of angiotensin subtype 1 receptor (AT 1 R) led to increased renal generation of prostaglandins E 2 (PGE 2 ) and renal inflammation. In turn, PGE 2 increases AT 1 R activity. The conversion of PGE 2 to the less active metabolite prostagland...
