Ang-II downregulates non-GC ANF receptors in rat cells; hypothesis-generating for RAAS-natriuretic peptide crosstalk in vivo.
Angiotensin II specifically down-regulates non-guanylate cyclase-coupled ANF receptors in rat vascular smooth muscle cells, demonstrating a functional link between the two systems.
Chabrier et al. (1988) studied this question.
