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 reg...
