Volume expansion enhances plasma endothelin-1 [PDF]
We hypothesized that acute volume expansion by saline infusion triggers the release of endothelin-1. Bolus intravenous saline infusion (8 mL/min) in six groups of conscious Wistar rats and spontaneously hypertensive rats did not change mean arterial ...

Endothelin and the ischaemic heart [PDF]
Soon after its identification as a powerful vasoconstrictor peptide, endothelin (ET-1) was implicated as a detrimental agent involved in determining the outcome of myocardial ischaemia and reperfusion.

Background and objective Endothelin-1 (ET-1) is a potent mitogen involved in cell growth in human lung adenocarcinoma cells SPC-A1. The increase in intracellular free calcium ([Ca2+]i) plays a great role in this process.

Arrhythmogenic action of endothelin-1 [PDF]
Dear Editor, It was highly interesting to read the ‘Letter to the Editor’ by Duru et al. [1] regarding the arrhythmogenic action of endothelin-1 (ET-1). ET-1 is supposed to act as a paracrine hormone released due to stretch or myocardial ischaemia in vivo. ET-1 prolonged action potential duration with early afterdepolarization (EAD) formation in right

Objective Systemic sclerosis (SSc) is a rare but severe autoimmune disease characterized by immune dysregulation, fibrosis, and vasculopathy. Although previous studies have highlighted the presence of functional autoantibodies targeting the angiotensin II receptor type 1 (AT1) and endothelin‐1 type A receptor (ETAR), leading to autoantibody‐mediated ...

Objective To assess the value of serum type I interferon (IFN) score in predicting clinically meaningful progression in limited cutaneous systemic sclerosis (lcSSc) using a novel composite endpoint adopted from the MINIMISE clinical trial. Methods A retrospective, longitudinal lcSSc cohort was identified within a national, multicenter observational ...

Inverse correlation between endothelin-1-induced peripheral microvascular vasoconstriction and blood pressure in glaucoma patients [PDF]
• Background: The potent vasoconstrictor peptide endothelin-I has been shown to participate in the control of peripheral vascular tone and in the regulation of ocular perfusion.
