Angiotensin II (ANG II) has long been known for its pressor and growth-promoting effects, which are both mediated by the AT1 receptor. By contrast, the AT2 receptor has recently been reported to mediate inhibition of proliferation through as yet undefined mechanisms. We report here that in bovine adrenal fasciculata cells ANG II by itself does not affect growth but inhibits basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF)-induced DNA synthesis and blocks the cells in G1 phase. Consistent with this, ANG II inhibits cyclin D1 expression and cyclin D1-associated kinase activity. The antimitogenic effect of ANG II is partly mimicked by the AT2-selective agonist CGP-42112. It is also blocked partly and in an additive fashion by the AT1- and AT2-selective antagonists losartan and PD-123319, indicating the contribution of both receptor subtypes to this response. AT1-dependent antiproliferation is selectively blocked by the cyclooxygenase inhibitor indomethacin and restored by prostaglandin E2, whereas AT2-receptor-mediated inhibition of growth is suppressed by the tyrosine phosphatase inhibitors orthovanadate and bpV(pic). Both pathways are, however, pertussis toxin sensitive. We hypothesize that, in fasciculata cells, the AT1 receptor inhibits bFGF-induced proliferation by stimulating prostaglandin synthesis, whereas the AT2 receptor mediates its effect through a pathway that requires protein tyrosine phosphatase activation.
