p90 ribosomal S6 kinases play a significant role in early gene regulation in the cardiomyocyte response to Gq protein-coupled receptor stimuli, endothelin-1 and α1-adrenergic receptor agonists [PDF]
Extracellular signal-regulated kinases 1/2 (ERK1/2) and their substrates, p90 ribosomal S6 kinases (RSKs), phosphorylate different transcription factors, contributing differentially to transcriptomic profiles.

Endothelin in health and disease
Endothelin is a recently discovered peptide composed of 21 amino acids. There are three endothelin isomers: endothelin -1 (ET-1), endothelin -2 (ET-2) and endothelin - 3 (ET-3).

Plasmatic Biochemical Variables Associated with Polymorphisms in the Endothelin-1 and Endothelin-1 Receptor a Genes in Hypertensive Patients: Pilot Study [PDF]
Endothelin-1 (ET-1) is a potent vasoconstrictive peptide, and its activity is mediated by thetype A receptor (EDNRA). This action may play a significant role in the etiology of hypertension.There are different works that shows an association between ...

Production of endothelin‐1 and big‐endothelin‐1 by pleural mesothelial cells
Immunoreactive endothelin‐1 (ET‐1) and big‐endothelin‐1 (big‐ET‐1) were detected in conditioned medium of cultured rat pleural mesothelial cells by using sensitive sandwich‐type enzyme immunoassays. The amount of both ET‐1 and big‐ET‐1 increased time‐dependently. In both instances, maximal amount was detectable in conditioned medium obtained after 72 h

Endothelin-1 Production by Normal Human Cultured Keratinocytes and its Regulation
The possibility that cultured keratinocytes produce endothelins were investigated. The results showed that cultured keratinocytes derived from normal human skin produce endothelin-1. Moreover, keratinocyte endothelin-1 production was completely inhibited
