A 779
A 779 is a potent and selective angiotensin-(1-7)/ Mas receptor antagonist [1].
Angiotensin-(1-7) is a bioactive component of the renin angiotensin system (RAS) which plays an important role in cardiovascular homeostasis and hydroelectrolyte balance in physiological and pathologic conditions [1][2].
A 779 is an angiotensin antagonist selective for the heptapeptide angiotensin-(I-7) [Ang-(l-7)] [1].
In water-loaded rats, A 779 significantly inhibited the antidiuretic effect of Ang-(l-7). In the rostral ventrolateral medulla, A-779 completely blocked the pressor effect produced by Ang-(1-7) microinjection [1]. In conscious Wistar rats, infusion of vehicle or A-779 (80 ng/ min, i.v.) started 40 to 45 minutes after captopril administration produced a significant shift of the BK dose-response curve obtained after captopril. A-779 significantly attenuated the potentiation of the hypotensive effect of BK by the ACE inhibitor captopril in conscious rats [2]. In anaesthetized male Wistar rats, when AT1R and AT2R were blocked, A779 increased renal blood flow/wet kidney tissue weight (RBF/KW). Co-blockade of all AT1R, AT2R, and MasR might alter RBF/ KW in male more than in female rats, which supported a crosstalk between MasR and Ang II receptors in renal circulation [3].
