Angiotensinogen (AGT) has a central role in maintaining blood pressure and fluid balance. DNA methylation is an epigenomic modification maintaining a steady pattern in somatic cells. Herein we summarize the link between AGT regulation and DNA methylation. DNA methylation negatively regulates AGT expression and dynamically changes in response to continuous AGT promoter stimulation. High-salt intake and excess circulating aldosterone cause DNA demethylation around the CCAAT enhancer-binding protein-binding sites, thereby converting the phenotype of AGT expression from an inactive to an active state in visceral adipose tissue. Salt-dependent hypertension may be partially affected by increased adipose AGT expression. Because angiotensin II is a well-established aldosterone-releasing hormone, stimulation of adipose AGT by aldosterone creates a positive feedback loop. This effect is pathologically associated with obesity-related hypertension, although it would be physiologically favorable for humans to efficiently retain their body fluid. The clear difference in DNA demethylation patterns between aldosterone and cortisol indicates a difference in the respective target DNA-binding sites between mineralocorticoid and glucocorticoid receptors in the AGT promoter. Stimulation-induced interactions between transcription factors and target DNA-binding sites trigger DNA demethylation. Dynamic changes in DNA methylation occur in relaxed chromatin regions both where transcription factors actively interact and where transcription is initiated. In contrast to rapid histone modifications, DNA demethylation and remethylation will progress relatively slowly over days or years. A wide variety of stimuli in daily life will continue to slowly and dynamically change DNA methylation patterns throughout life. Wise choices of beneficial stimuli will improve health.
