Other Information

**Key Characteristics:** 1. **Receptor function:** AGTR2 is a G protein-coupled receptor (GPCR) that binds to angiotensin II, a peptide hormone produced in the kidneys, to activate downstream signaling pathways. 2. **Expression:** AGTR2 is expressed in various tissues, including the brain, kidneys, heart, blood vessels, and immune cells, such as microglia, T cells, and dendritic cells. 3. **Signaling pathways:** AGTR2 activates multiple signaling pathways, including the angiotensin-activated signaling pathway, Gαi signaling events, and nitric oxide-mediated signal transduction, which regulate blood pressure, inflammation, and cell growth. **Pathways and Functions:** 1. **Angiotensin-activated signaling pathway:** AGTR2 activation leads to the phosphorylation and activation of downstream kinases, which in turn modulate blood pressure, fluid balance, and electrolyte homeostasis. 2. **Vasodilation:** AGTR2 activation promotes vasodilation, which helps to regulate systemic arterial blood pressure and maintain cardiovascular homeostasis. 3. **Inflammation regulation:** AGTR2 signaling pathways also modulate inflammatory responses, including the regulation of immune cell activation and cytokine production. 4. **Cell growth and apoptosis:** AGTR2 activation can inhibit cell growth and promote apoptosis in certain cell types, including neurons and endothelial cells. 5. **Renal function:** AGTR2 plays a critical role in regulating renal function, including the modulation of blood pressure, sodium excretion, and kidney development. **Clinical Significance:** The AGTR2 gene has been implicated in various diseases, including: 1. **Hypertension:** AGTR2 dysfunction has been linked to hypertension, a major risk factor for cardiovascular disease and kidney disease. 2. **Kidney disease:** AGTR2 plays a critical role in regulating renal function, and its dysfunction can contribute to kidney disease, including chronic kidney disease and end-stage renal disease. 3. **Cardiovascular disease:** AGTR2 activation can promote cardiovascular disease, including atherosclerosis, heart failure, and cardiac arrhythmias. 4. **Neurological disorders:** AGTR2 signaling pathways have been implicated in neurological disorders, including Alzheimer's disease, Parkinson's disease, and multiple sclerosis. In conclusion, the AGTR2 gene is a critical component of the renin-angiotensin system, and its dysregulation can contribute to various diseases. Further research is needed to fully understand the complex relationships between AGTR2 and its downstream signaling pathways, as well as its role in maintaining cardiovascular and renal homeostasis.
