More Info:

Biological target: AT2 receptor agonist C21 is a druglike selective angiotensin II AT2 receptor agonist with Ki values of 0.4 nM and >10 µM for the AT2 receptor and AT1 receptor, respectively.
In vitro activity: The effect of direct AT2 receptor stimulation with Compound 21 (C21) on the leukocyte adhesion cascade in vitro was examined. Effects of C21 on TNFα-induced inflammation were assessed in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs), activation of monocytes, and polarisation of monocyte-derived macrophages. C21 attenuated TNFα-induced: monocyte adhesion to cultured HUVECs, adhesion molecule expression and abolished TNFα-induced ROS production. TNFα-induced NFκB translocation from the cytoplasm to the nucleus, essential for cytokine production, was prevented by C21. C21 did not influence monocyte activation or macrophage polarisation but did reduce TNFα and IL-6 mRNA expression in M1 macrophages. The anti-inflammatory effects of C21 were abolished by an AT2 receptor antagonist confirming that the effects of C21 were AT2 receptor-mediated. C21 prevented TNFαinduced and HFD-induced vascular inflammation in vitro. The data provides strong evidence that the anti-atherosclerotic actions of C21 were due to vascular anti-inflammatory effects, mediated by AT2 receptors. Br J Pharmacol. 2016 Feb;173(4):729-40. https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/25560767/
In vivo activity: In the present study, the role of a novel, non-peptide agonist, C21, in natriuresis via AT2 receptor activation in OZR was investigated. Infusion of C21 caused dose-dependent increases in UF (urine flow) and UNaV (urinary Na volume) relative to basal rates, and these increases were highly significant with the 5 μg kg−1 min−1 dose (Figure 2), which was used in subsequent sets of the experiment. To demonstrate that C21-induced Na excretion is mediated via the AT2 receptor, the AT2 receptor antagonist, PD123319 (50 μg kg−1 min−1 i.v.), was infused before the infusion of C21. Although PD123319 alone did not affect UF or UNaV, when compared with basal rates, it completely abolished increases in UF and UNaV in response to C21 (Figure 3), suggesting the involvement of the AT2 receptor. Infusion of C21 (5 μg kg−1 min−1) caused a significant increase in FENa (Basal: 3.033±0.9%, C21: 14.63±2.3%, P<0.05), suggesting a tubular effect of the drug (Figure 4a). Similarly, C21 infusion (5 μg kg−1 min−1) caused a significant increase in FELi (Basal: 24.6±2.9, C21: 56.8±5.5 %, P<0.05) (Figure 4b). The C21 infusion in AM + BFTZ-infused rats caused a further increase in both the UF and the UNaV. These findings suggest that the majority of C21-induced natriuresis originates from the proximal nephron segments; however, the findings do not rule out the possibility of involvement at the loop of Henle.
