Angiotensin I (human, mouse, rat), a decapeptide hormone, is the precursor of Angiotensin II[1]. Angiotensin I is specifically cleaved to Angiotensin II by the angiotensin-converting enzyme (ACE) in vivo[2]. Angiotensin II activates AT1 and AT2 receptors, raises blood pressure, and stimulates aldosterone release[3]. As a standard tool peptide in renin-angiotensin system (RAS) research, Angiotensin I is widely used in cardiovascular studies of hypertension, heart failure, and kidney disease[4].
In vitro, Treatment of murine peritoneal cells with Angiotensin I (10ng/μl;10 min–6h) results in cooperative conversion to Angiotensin II by mast-cell chymase mMCP-4 and carboxypeptidase A, peaking at 10–30min and degrading by 3h, concomitantly yielding Ang-(1–9), Ang-(5–10) and Ang-(1–7)[5]. Angiotensin I (500µM; 2h pre-incubation followed by 48h co-infection) significantly increases the invasion efficiency of SARS-CoV-2 spike-pseudotyped virus (PVP) into human ACE2-overexpressing HEK-ACE2 cells independently of the Angiotensin II AT1 receptor[6].
In vivo, Angiotensin I (1000ng/kg/min; 4 weeks; s.c. osmotic minipump) induced both thoracic and abdominal aortic aneurysms in Ldlr⁻/⁻ mice, and increased ascending aortic intima area by 2.4-fold and suprarenal abdominal aortic diameter by 1.9-fold[7]. Angiotensin I (0.2µg/g BW; single i.p.; 5min ) increased systolic blood pressure by 28 ± 4mmHg in male C57BL/6J mice[8].

| Cell experiment [1]: | |
Cell lines | HEK-ACE2 cells |
Preparation Method | The recipient cells (HEK-ACE2) were seeded in density 4×104 cells per well of 96-well plate and cultured overnight in normal growth medium (DMEM, pH=7.6) supplemented with 10% FBS. Next day, the cells were pre-incubated with 500µM Angiotensin I for 2h then SARS-CoV-2 Spike pseudovirus (in 50µl of cultivation medium) was added to the cells. The cells were lysed with 70µl of cell lysis buffer 48h post-infection and 30µl of lysate was used to determine the luciferase activity. |
Reaction Conditions | 500µM; 2h pre-incubation followed by 48h co-infection |
Applications | Angiotensin I significantly reduced the viability of human ACE2-overexpressing HEK-ACE2 cells infected with SARS-CoV-2 spike-pseudotyped virus. |
| Animal experiment [2]: | |
Animal models | Male low density lipoprotein receptor (Ldlr)-/- mice |
Preparation Method | Male low density lipoprotein receptor (Ldlr)-/- mice were fed a standard rodent diet and provided with water purified by reverse osmosis (pH 6.0-6.2). Hypercholesterolemia was induced by feeding a diet supplemented with saturated fat. When mice were 8–16 weeks old, saline, Angiotensin I (1,000ng/kg/min) was infused subcutaneously using osmotic pump (Alzet model 1004 for 4 weeks). Aortas were dissected from the ascending region to iliac bifurcation and placed in 10% (wt/vol) neutrally buffered formalin overnight. After removal of adventitia, aortas were pinned and photographed. To quantify abdominal aortic dilation, maximal ex vivo diameters of suprarenal aortas were measured using ImagePro Plus software. Subsequently, aortas were cut open longitudinally, secured with pins, and imaged. To determine formation of thoracic aortic aneurysms, the intimal area of the ascending aorta was measured. |
Dosage form | 1000ng/kg/min; 4 weeks; s.c. osmotic minipump |
Applications | Angiotensin I induced both thoracic and abdominal aortic aneurysms in Ldlr⁻/⁻ mice, and increased ascending aortic intima area by 2.4-fold and suprarenal abdominal aortic diameter by 1.9-fold. |
