    Notes: Summary The biological effects of 1-Sarcosine, 8-Threonine angiotensin II ([Sar1, Thr8]ANG II) on blood pressure, plasma aldosterone concentration (PAC) and plasma renin activity (PRA) were investigated in six normal subjects on an unrestricted diet, and compared with those of 1-Sarcosine, 8-Isoleucine ANG II ([Sar1, Ile8]ANG II) and 1-Sarcosine, 8-Alanine ANG II ([Sar1, Ala8]ANG II). All three ANG II analogues (A II A) showed agonistic pressor activity, that of [Sar1, Ile8]ANG II being greater than that of [Sar1, Thr8]ANG II or [Sar1, Ala8]ANG II. The antagonistic effect of [Sar1, Thr8]ANG II on blood pressure was less than [Sar1, Ile8]ANG II or [Sar1, Ala8]ANG II. Both [Sar1, Ile8]ANG II and [Sar1, Ala8]ANG II increased PAC and blocked the steroidogenic action of ANG II, while [Sar1, Thr8]ANG II showed little effect on PAC. All three A II A caused similar suppression of PRA and showed no inhibitory effect on the decrease in PRA produced by ANG II. These results indicate that [Sar1, Thr8] ANG II is an A II A with weak agonistic pressor action and that it has vascular selective properties. It is also suggested that ANG II receptors in a variety of target organs are heterogeneous.

    Notes: Summary Sex histories and serum samples were obtained from 27 hypertensive men before and after 3 months of therapy with either 100 mg of hydrochlorothiazide or 0.25 mg of reserpine daily. Sera were analyzed for testosterone, dihydrotestosterone, estradiol, luteinizing hormone and prolactin. Both drugs effectively lowered blood pressure. The incidence of impaired sexual performance was low and insignificantly different in the two treatment groups. There were no significant changes in serum hormone concentrations as a result of drug therapy.

    Notes: Summary Two angiotensin II analogues (AIIA), 1-sarcosine, 8-isoleucine angiotensin II ([Sar1, Ile8]-AII) and 1-sarcosine, 8-alanine angiotensin II ([Sar1, Ala8-AII), were infused in six normal volunteers on high, regular and low sodium diets. The agonist and antagonist activities of these AIIA on blood pressure (BP), plasma aldosterone concentration (PAC), creatinine clearance and plasma renin activity were examined. Both AIIA had agonistic pressor activities in subjects on high and regular sodium diets, [Sar1, Ile8]-AII being more potent than [Sar1, Ala8]-AII. Both AIIA caused similar elevation of PAC in subjects on high and regular sodium diets, and an equally fall in PAC in subjects on a low sodium diet. Both AIIA strongly antagonized the rise in BP, the increase in PAC and the reduction of Ccr induced by AII administration in subjects on all three sodium diets. The results indicate that both AIIA can be used to examine the activity of the renin-angiotensin system in patients with hypertension, and they also suggest that AII interaction with its receptors differs in different target tissues.
