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

open access: yes, 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 ...

Efficacy and safety of riociguat in combination therapy for patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension (PATENT studies)

open access: yesPulmonary Circulation, 2020
Many patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension do not achieve treatment goals with monotherapy, and therefore combination therapy is becoming the standard of care.

Protein kinase C inhibition attenuates vascular ETB receptor upregulation and decreases brain damage after cerebral ischemia in rat

open access: yesBMC Neuroscience, 2007
Background Protein kinase C (PKC) is known to be involved in the pathophysiology of experimental cerebral ischemia. We have previously shown that after transient middle cerebral artery occlusion, there is an upregulation of endothelin receptors in the ...

Affinity labelling of endothelin receptor and characterization of solubilized endothelin–endothelin‐receptor complex [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Biochemistry, 1990
Chick cardiac membranes were affinity labelled by cross‐linking to membrane‐bound 125I‐endothelin‐1 with disuccinimidyl tartarate. SDS/PAGE and autoradiographic analysis of the 125I‐endothelin‐1‐labelled material in the presence or absence of 2‐mercaptoethanol revealed one major labelled band, corresponding to a molecular mass of 53 kDa, whose ...

Pharmacological Potential of Endothelin Receptors Agonists and Antagonists

open access: yesActa Medica, 2005
Endothelins are potent predominantly vasoconstricting agents that act as local autocrine and paracrine mediators. Endothelin-1 is the most potent and sustained vasoconstrictor and pressor substance yet identified.

Drug treatment of hypertension: focus on vascular health [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Hypertension, the most common preventable risk factor for cardiovascular disease and death, is a growing health burden. Serious cardiovascular complications result from target organ damage including cerebrovascular disease, heart failure, ischaemic heart

Endothelin Receptors and Pain [PDF]

open access: yesThe Journal of Pain, 2009
The endogenous endothelin (ET) peptides participate in a remarkable variety of pain-relatedprocesses. Pain that is elevated by inflammation, by skin incision, by cancer, during a Sickle Cell Disease crisis and by treatments that mimic neuropathic and inflammatory pain and are all reduced by local administration of antagonists of endothelin receptors ...

Aberrant Expression of Histamine-independent Pruritogenic Mediators in Keratinocytes may be Involved in the Pathogenesis of Prurigo Nodularis

open access: yesActa Dermato-Venereologica, 2019
Prurigo nodularis is a highly pruritic and hyperplastic chronic dermatosis with unknown pathogenesis. Many pruritogenic mediators, including nerve growth factor, interleukin (IL)-31, thymic stromal lymphopoietin, and endothelin-1, are implicated in ...

Targeting endothelin receptor signalling overcomes heterogeneity driven therapy failure

open access: yesEMBO Molecular Medicine, 2017
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 ...
