A Human Engineered Heart Tissue‐Derived Lipotoxic Diabetic Cardiomyopathy Model Revealed Early Benefits of Empagliflozin

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study develops a human engineered heart tissue‐derived model of diabetic cardiomyopathy that accurately replicates the dynamic changes in the structural, contractile, and electrophysiological properties of the myocardium. Furthermore, this model is used to confirm the direct protective effects of empagliflozin on the heart through an SGLT2 off ...

Endothelin receptor B antagonists decrease glioma cell viability independently of their cognate receptor [PDF]

, 2008
Background: Endothelin receptor antagonists inhibit the progression of many cancers, but research into their influence on glioma has been limited. Methods: We treated glioma cell lines, LN-229 and SW1088, and melanoma cell lines, A375 and WM35 ...

Role of the endothelin axis in astrocyte- and endothelial cell-mediated chemoprotection of cancer cells.

Neuro-Oncology, 2014
BACKGROUND Recent evidence suggests that astrocytes protect cancer cells from chemotherapy by stimulating upregulation of anti-apoptotic genes in those cells.

Neutrophil–Endothelium Interaction Mediated by S100A9 Promotes Pulmonary Vascular Remodeling During Pulmonary Hypertension

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study investigates the critical mechanisms underlying pulmonary hypertension progression, with a focus on the novel role of neutrophil‐derived S100A9 in endothelial dysfunction‐mediated pulmonary vascular remodeling. By integrating human lung samples, multi‐omics analyses, animal models, and mechanistic in vitro studies, it is revealed that how ...

The role of endothelin in stroke: Experimental data and underlying pathophysiology

Archives of Medical Science, 2006
The role of endothelin in functional and structural changes after stroke is only partly understood: synthesis and release of the potent vasoconstrictor peptide endothelin-1 increases following ischemia and mediates the delayed hypoperfusion associated ...

Nuclear β-arrestin1 is a critical cofactor of hypoxia-inducible factor-1α signaling in endothelin-1-induced ovarian tumor progression [PDF]

, 2016
Hypoxia-inducible factor-1α (HIF-1α) mediates the response to hypoxia or other stimuli, such as growth factors, including endothelin-1 (ET-1), to promote malignant progression in numerous tumors.

Endothelin signalling in iridophore development and stripe pattern formation of zebrafish

Biology Open, 2014
Colour patterns of adult fish are composed of several different types of pigment cells distributing in the skin during juvenile development. The zebrafish, Danio rerio, displays a striking pattern of dark stripes of melanophores interspersed with light ...

Astrocytic ET‐1 System Determines Microglia Phenotype Following Spinal Cord Injury

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
The study reveals that astrocytic ET‐1 system is solely activated by thrombin following SCI via RhoA/NF‐κB and MAPKs/NF‐κB signal pathway. The release of astrocytic ET‐1 drives microglia polarization toward M1 phenotype through YAP signaling via ETA and ETB receptors.

Role of endothelin-1 in periodontal diseases: A structured review

Indian Journal of Dental Research, 2016
Background and Objective: Endothelin-1 (ET-1) is a 21-amino acid peptide and is a potent vasoconstrictor produced by endothelial cells. It plays a role in the development of diseases such as hypertension and atherosclerosis.
