1 Antisense oligonucleotide inhibition of angiotensinogen and ANG II type 1 receptor (AT(1)) mRNA translation in rat proximal tubules (PT) was examined to provide direct evidence for a role of the renin-angiotensin system (RAS) in upregulated osteopontin expression observed following mechanical cell stretch. Oligonucleotides angiotensin II receptor, type 1a Rattus norvegicus
2 Blockade of either angiotensinogen or AT(1) mRNA translation by antisense oligonucleotide inhibition prior to cell stretch was found to significantly decrease osteopontin mRNA levels 2.4-fold (P<0.004) and 1.6-fold (P<0.001), respectively, compared with values observed in control unstretched cells. Oligonucleotides angiotensin II receptor, type 1a Rattus norvegicus
