Researchers suspected since 70s the existence of different angiotensin receptors. However, tools to identify those distinct trans-membrane receptors became available ten years later. Receptors binding assays identified angiotensin receptors in vitro using radioactive angiotensin. Results showed several types of angiotensin receptors, found in different tissues. The main receptors are AT1 and AT2 <ref> [https://academic.oup.com/ajh/article/13/4/442/200554 Angiotensin receptors: History and mysteries, T.L. Goodfriend.
