AGT and Hypertension: In this review, we briefly discuss (1) the regulation of renal afferent arterioles in Ang II-dependent hypertension, (2) the interaction of AT1R and P2XR activation in regulating renal afferent arterioles in a setting of hypertension, (3) mechanisms regulating ATP release and effect of angiotensin II on ATP release, and (4) the possible intracellular pathways involved in AT1R and P2XR interactions.
