Transactivation of the Insulin-Like Growth Factor-I Receptor by Angiotensin II Mediates Downstream Signaling from the Angiotensin II Type 1 Receptor to Phosphatidylinositol 3-Kinase
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Angiotensin II (AngII) activates phosphatidylinositol 3-kinase (PI3-kinase), a known effector of receptor tyrosine kinases. Treatment of smooth muscle cells with AngII has also been shown to promote phosphorylation of various tyrosine kinase receptors. We therefore investigated the relationship between AngII and IGF-I receptor activation in smooth muscle cells with a phosphorylation-specific antibody. Our experiments showed that IGF-I receptor phosphorylation was maximally stimulated within 10 min by AngII. Inclusion of an IGF-I-neutralizing antibody in the culture media did not prevent IGF-I receptor phosphorylation after AngII treatment, which argues that a paracrine/autocrine loop is not required. Furthermore, this process was blocked by losartan and 1-(1,1-dimethylethyl)-1-(4-methylphenyl)-1H-pyrazolo[3,4-d]pyrimidin-4-amine (PP-1), indicating stimulation of IGF-I receptor phosphorylation occurs via AngII type 1 receptor-dependent activation of Src kinase. The functional significance of IGF-I receptor transactivation was examined with selective inhibitors of the IGF-I receptor kinase (AG1024, AG538). When AngII-treated cells were incubated with AG1024 or AG538, phosphorylation of the regulatory p85 subunit of PI3-kinase was blocked. Furthermore, phosphorylation of the downstream factor p70(S6K) did not occur. In contrast, AG1024 did not prevent MAPK or Src kinase activation by AngII. AG1024 also did not inhibit AngII-dependent cell migration, although this process was blocked by inhibitors of the epidermal growth factor and platelet-derived growth factor receptors. Transactivation of the IGF-I receptor is therefore a critical mediator of PI3-kinase activation by AngII but is not required for stimulation of the MAPK cascade.

Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
