Angiotensin II (Ang II) stimulates norepinephrine transporter (NET)
and tyrosine hydroxylase (TH) in the neurons, but the signal
transduction mechanism of this neuromodulation is not understood.
Treatment of neuronal cultures of hypothalamus-brainstem with Ang II
resulted in a time- and dose-dependent activation of Ras, Raf-1, and
mitogen-activated protein kinase. This activation was mediated by the
interaction of Ang II with the AT1 receptor
subtype and was associated with the redistribution of
AT1 receptor with Ras and Raf-1 on the neuronal
membrane. Treatment with antisense oligonucleotide (AON) to
mitogen-activated protein kinase decreased mitogen-activated protein
kinase immunoreactivity by 70% and attenuated Ang II stimulation of
c-fos, NET, and TH mRNA levels. This demonstrates that
induction of these genes requires mitogen-activated protein kinase
activation by Ang II. In contrast, AON to mitogen-activated protein
kinase failed to inhibit Ang II stimulation of plasminogen activator
inhibitor-1 mRNA levels. These results suggest that
AT1 receptors are coupled to a Ras-Raf-1
mitogen-activated protein kinase signal transduction pathway that is
responsible for stimulation of NET and TH, two neuromodulatory actions
of Ang II in the brain.
