The angiotensin subtype-1 (AT1) receptor mediates renal prostaglandin E2(PGE2) production, and pharmacological blockade of the angiotensin subtype-2 (AT2) receptor potentiates the action of angiotensin II (Ang II) to increase PGE2levels. We investigated the role of the AT2receptor in prostaglandin metabolism in mice with targeted deletion of the AT2receptor gene. Mice lacking the AT2receptor (AT2-null) had normal blood pressure that was slightly elevated compared with that of wild-type (WT) control mice. AT2-null mice had higher renal interstitial fluid (RIF) 6-keto-PGF1α(a stable hydrolysis product of prostacyclin [PGI2]) and PGE2levels than did WT mice, and had similar increases in PGE2and 6-keto-PGF1αin response to dietary sodium restriction and Ang II infusion. In contrast, AT2-null mice had lower PGF2αlevels compared with WT mice during basal conditions and in response to dietary sodium restriction or infusion of Ang II. RIF cAMP was markedly higher in AT2-null mice than in WT mice, both during basal conditions and during sodium restriction or Ang II infusion. AT1receptor blockade with losartan decreased PGE2, PGI2, and cAMP to levels observed in WT mice. To determine whether increased vasodilator prostanoids prevented hypertension in AT2-null mice, we treated AT2-null and WT mice with indomethacin for 14 days. PGI2, PGE2, and cAMP were markedly decreased in both WT and AT2-null mice. Blood pressure increased to hypertensive levels in AT2-null mice but was unchanged in WT. These results demonstrate that in the absence of the AT2receptor, increased vasodilator prostanoids protect against the development of hypertension.
