Abstract
Abrogation of intracellular calcium influx during AT1 activation blunted the known Ang II induced increase in microvascular permeability. Although the effect observed during AT1 activation was blunted by the HK solution, a significant elevation of Lp was still observed. This suggests that Ang II activation of the AT1 receptor increases microvascular permeability primarily, but not exclusively, via modulation of endothelial intracellular calcium ion levels.
