    Abstract:
    Evidence for a competitive type of interaction between angiotensin II type 1 (AT(1)) antagonists on Chinese hamster ovary cells expressing the human AT(1) receptor (CHO-AT(1)) was obtained by analyzing the binding of [(3)H]-2-ethoxy-1-[(2'-(1H-tetrazol-5-yl)biphenyl-4-yl)methyl]-1H- ben zimidazoline-7-carboxylic acid ([(3)H]candesartan) and by measuring the AT-induced production of inositol phosphates. The AT(1) antagonists candesartan, 2-n-butyl-4-chloro-1-[(2'-(1H-tetrazol-5-yl)biphenyl-4-yl)methyl]+ ++imid azole-5-carboxylic acid (EXP3174), or 2-n-butyl-4-chloro-5-hydroxymethyl-1-[(2'-(1H-tetrazol-5-yl)bip hen yl- 4-yl)methyl]imidazole (losartan) produced a concentration-dependent increase in the apparent K(d) values of [(3)H]candesartan in saturation binding experiments, while the B(max) values were unchanged. Furthermore, the dissociation rate of the radioligand initiated by 1 microM unlabelled candesartan was not changed in the presence of 10 microM losartan, 10 microM EXP3174, or 10 microM irbesartan (2-n-butyl-4-spirocyclopentane-1-[(2'-(1H-tetrazol-5-yl)b iph enyl-4-yl) methyl]2-imidazolin-5-one)). Preincubation of the CHO-AT(1) cells with candesartan, EXP3174, and irbesartan caused a reduction in the maximal AT-induced inositol mono-, bis-, and trisphosphate production. This insurmountable effect was reversed in the presence of 1 microM losartan. In line with this finding, the insurmountable antagonist concentration-inhibition curves at 10 microM AT were shifted to the right in the presence of losartan. For candesartan this effect was concentration-dependent, yielding a pK(B) value for losartan of 7.7, which is similar to the pK(B) from previously obtained AT concentration-response curves. Finally, the dissociation rate of candesartan, EXP3174, irbesartan, and losartan was determined by measuring the recovery of AT responses after antagonist pretreatment and washing of the cells with medium containing 1 microM losartan to prevent re-association of the insurmountable antagonists. In addition, similar kinetic data were obtained from the slowing of the [(3)H]candesartan association rate to antagonist preincubated cells.
