Identification of endothelin-1, endothelin-2 and endothelin-3 in human endometrium [PDF]
This study determined the presence of specific endothelin isoforms in human endometrium using high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC) combined with radioimmunoassay, and immunocytochemistry to detect the endothelin precursors (proendothelin-1, proendothelin-2 and proendothelin-3).

Following the initial description of endothelium-dependent vasoconstriction in the early 1980s, it has been exactly 25 years since efforts to identify the sequence of the endothelin gene and peptide began in May 1987, work which resulted in a landmark paper submitted to Nature in December 1987 and published on March 31, 1988.

We examined the effect of endothelin-1, endothelin-3 and sarafotoxin S6c on the release of noradrenaline from gastric sympathetic nerve terminals using an isolated, vascularly perfused rat stomach.

There is some controversy regarding whether vascular responses to endothelin are altered in hypercholesterolemia. Studies performed to date have been compromised by the use of endothelin antagonists at inappropriate concentrations.

Objective Mycophenolate mofetil (MMF) use in limited cutaneous systemic sclerosis (lcSSc) is relatively uncommon because of the lower fibrotic burden and the predominance of vascular complications. In vitro observations and clinical data from transplanted patients suggest a protective effect of MMF on endothelial function.

Objective JAK inhibitors (JAKis) have shown promising effects in early‐phase studies of SSc. We aimed to assess the safety and explore effectiveness of JAKis compared to conventional immunosuppressants in SSc. Methods A longitudinal retrospective study of the EUSTAR cohort was performed.

A shape‐memory microneedle system enables reproductive hormone therapy through a single transdermal insertion. The X‐shaped device sustains follicle‐stimulating hormone release for three days, and mild heating restores the O shape to trigger burst human chorionic gonadotropin release.

Targeting endothelin receptor signalling overcomes heterogeneity driven therapy failure
Approaches to prolong responses to BRAF targeting drugs in melanoma patients are challenged by phenotype heterogeneity. Melanomas of a “MITF‐high” phenotype usually respond well to BRAF inhibitor therapy, but these melanomas also contain subpopulations ...

Endothelial cells can produce contracting factors; endothelin, a 21-amino acid peptide that can control local vascular tone, is the most potent of these factors. Of the three isoforms of endothelin, endothelial cells appear to release primarily endothelin-1.
