High affinity angiotensin II receptors in myocardial sarcolemmal membranes. Characterization of receptors and covalent linkage of 125I- angiotensin II to a membrane component of 116,000 daltons

TB Rogers

High affinity receptors for angiotensin II have been identified on purified cardiac sarcolemmal membranes. Equilibrium binding studies were performed with 125I-labeled angiotensin II and purified sarcolemmal vesicles from calf ventricle. The curvilinear Scatchard plots were evaluated by nonlinear regression analysis using a two-site model which identified a high affinity site Kd1 = 1.08 +/- 0.3 nM and N1 = 52 +/- 10 fmol/mg of protein and a low affinity site Kd2 = 52 +/- 16 nM and N2 = 988 +/- 170 fmol/mg of protein. Monovalent and divalent cations inhibited the binding of 125I-angiotensin II by 50%. The affinity of angiotensin II analogs for the receptor was determined using competitive binding assays; sarcosine, leucine-angiotensin II (Sar,Leu-angiotensin II), Kd = 0.53 nM; angiotensin II, Kd = 2.5 nM; des-aspartic acid-angiotensin II, Kd = 4.81 nM; angiotensin I, Kd = 77.6 nM. There is a positive correlation between potency in inducing positive inotropic response in myocardial preparations reported by others and potency for the hormone receptor observed in the binding assays. Pseudo-Hill plots of the binding data showed that agonists display biphasic binding with Hill numbers around 0.65 while antagonists recognized a single class of high affinity receptors with Hill numbers close to unity. These data were confirmed using 125I- Sar,Leu-angiotensin II in equilibrium binding studies which showed that this antagonist bound to a single class of receptor sites; Kd = 0.42 +/- 0.04 nM and N = 1050 +/- 110 fmol/mg of protein. Competition-binding experiments with this 125I-peptide yielded monophasic curves with Hill numbers close to unity for both agonists and antagonists. Membrane- bound 125I-angiotensin II was covalently linked to its receptor by the use of bifunctional cross-linking reagents such as dithiobis(succinimidyl propionate) and bis[2- (succinimidooxycarbonyloxy)ethyl]sulfone. Analysis of the membranes showed the labeling of a component with an apparent Mr = 116,000. The affinity labeled species showed characteristics expected of a functional component of the high affinity receptor. The affinity labeling of this membrane component was inhibited by nanomolar angiotensin II or Sar,Leu-angiotensin II. Together these data indicate that high affinity receptors exist for angiotensin II that most likely mediate the positive inotropic effects of this hormone on myocardial cells.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 400 WORDS)
