Angiotensin II is a potent vasopressor hormone and a primary regulator of aldosterone secretion. It is an important effector controlling blood pressure and volume in the cardiovascular system. It acts through at least two types of receptors. This gene encodes the type 1 receptor which is thought to mediate the major cardiovascular effects of angiotensin II. This gene may play a role in the generation of reperfusion arrhythmias following restoration of blood flow to ischemic or infarcted myocardium. It was previously thought that a related gene, denoted as AGTR1B , existed; however, it is now believed that there is only one type 1 receptor gene in humans. Alternative splicing of this gene results in multiple transcript variants. [provided by RefSeq, Aug 2020]
A study in mice demonstrated that perinatal glyphosate exposure (PGE) induced differential expression of 1759 lncRNAs and 759 mRNAs in the hippocampus, with the mRNA Agtr1b identified as a differentially expressed transcript involved in cellular response to hormone stimulus and neuroactive ligand-receptor interaction pathways [Fan et al.
