Pulmonary arterial hypertension outcomes upon endothelin-1 receptor antagonist switch to macitentan [PDF]
Objectives: To assess whether switching patients with suboptimally controlled pulmonary arterial hypertension from bosentan or ambrisentan to macitentan would improve six-minute walk test (6MWT) distance and World Health Organization functional class ...

Abstract Aims SPARCL1 was recently identified as a biomarker of right ventricular (RV) maladaptation in patients with pulmonary hypertension (PH), and N‐terminal pro‐brain natriuretic protein (NT‐proBNP) is an established biomarker of RV failure in PH. The present study investigated whether NT‐proBNP and SPARCL1 concentrations are associated with load ...

Endothelin‐1 and Endothelin Receptor Antagonists in Cardiovascular Remodeling
Endothelins build a peptide family composed of three isoforms, each of them containing 21 amino acids. Endothelin‐1 is the isoform mainly responsible for any cardiovascular action and therefore the sole scope of this review. Endothelin‐1 is the most potent endogenous vasoconstrictor known; in addition it acts as a potent (co)mitogen.

Direct angiotensin AT2 receptor stimulation using a novel AT2 receptor agonist, compound 21, evokes neuroprotection in conscious hypertensive rats [PDF]
Background: In this study, the neuroprotective effect of a novel nonpeptide AT2R agonist, C21, was examined in a conscious model of stroke to verify a class effect of AT2R agonists as neuroprotective agents.
