Abstract excerpt
Two distinct types of cell-surface angiotensin II receptors (AT1 and AT2) have been defined pharmacologically and cDNAs encoding each type have been identified by expression cloning. These pharmacological studies showed the AT1 receptors to mediate all the known functions of angiotensin II in regulating salt and fluid homeostasis. Further complexity in the angiotensin II receptor system was revealed when homology...
