In non-differentiated NG108-15 cells, both angiotensin II (Ang II) (100 nM) and CGP 42112 (100 nM) decreased the T-type calcium current amplitude by 24 +/- 2% and 21 +/- 3%, respectively. cGMP is not a mediator of the Ang II effect, since loading of cells with 50 microM cGMP did not prevent the inhibitory effects of Ang II. The effects of Ang II involves a non-identified GTPase activity since incubation with GDP beta S (3 mM) completely reversed the inhibitory effect of Ang II while GTP gamma S mimicked its effect. However, Ang II binding was not affected by GTP gamma S, and the effect of Ang II was not modified in pertussis toxin-treated cells. The inhibitory effect of Ang II on the T-type Ca2+ current involves a phosphotyrosine phosphatase activity since sodium orthovanadate prevented the effects of Ang II, although microcystin-LR, a selective Ser/Thr phosphatase 1 and 2A inhibitor, did not modify the effect of Ang II. These results provide the first evidence of a modulation of membrane conductance by Ang II through the AT2 receptor and demonstrate the involvement of a phosphotyrosine phosphatase and a G protein in the AT2 transduction mechanism in NG108-15 cells. Moreover, our data suggest that phosphotyrosine phosphatase activation is proximal to receptor occupation, since sodium orthovanadate inhibits both GTPase activity and T-type current blockage induced by Ang II or CGP 42112, while GTP gamma S inhibition of the T-type calcium current is not impaired.
