Angiotensin-converting enzyme type 2 (ACE2) is a pivotal component of the
renin-angiotensin system, promoting the conversion of angiotensin II (Ang-II) to
Ang-(1-7). We previously reported that decreased ACE2 expression and activity
contributes to the development of Ang-II-mediated hypertension in mice. The
present study aimed to investigate the mechanisms involved in ACE2 downregulation
during neurogenic hypertension. In ACE2-transfected Neuro-2A cells, Ang-II
treatment resulted in a significant attenuation of ACE2 enzymatic activity.
Examination of the subcellular localization of ACE2 revealed that Ang-II
treatment leads to ACE2 internalization and degradation into lysosomes. These
effects were prevented by both the Ang-II type 1 receptor (AT1R) blocker losartan
and the lysosomal inhibitor leupeptin. In contrast, in HEK293T cells, which lack
endogenous AT1R, Ang-II failed to promote ACE2 internalization. Moreover, this
effect could be induced after AT1R transfection. Furthermore,
coimmunoprecipitation experiments demonstrated that AT1R and ACE2 form complexes,
and these interactions were decreased by Ang-II treatment, which also enhanced
ACE2 ubiquitination. In contrast, ACE2 activity was not changed by transfection
of AT2 or Mas receptors. In vivo, Ang-II-mediated hypertension was blunted by
chronic infusion of leupeptin in wildtype C57Bl/6, but not in ACE2 knockout mice.
Overall, this is the first demonstration that elevated Ang-II levels reduce ACE2
expression and activity by stimulation of lysosomal degradation through an
AT1R-dependent mechanism.
