Successful treatment of patients with severe secondary Raynaud's phenomenon with the endothelin receptor antagonist bosentan.

open access: yesRheumatology, 2006
Secondary Raynaud's phenomenon (RP) in patients with systemic sclerosis (SSc) and other collagen vascular diseases is a serious manifestation of microvascular damage that may precede the onset of visceral and/or cutaneous sclerosis for years.

Growth factors in idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis: relative roles [PDF]

open access: yes, 2001
Treatment of idiopathic pulmonary fibrosis patients has evolved very slowly; the fundamental approach of corticosteroids alone or in combination with other immunosuppressive agents has had little impact on long-term survival.

Evidence for biased agonists and antagonists at the endothelin receptors

open access: yesLife Sciences, 2016
Biased ligands represent a new strategy for the development of more effective and better tolerated drugs. To date there has been a paucity of research exploring the potential of ligands that exhibit either G protein or β-arrestin pathway selectivity at the endothelin receptors.

Pharmacotherapy for Cirrhosis in Japan

open access: yesPortal Hypertension &Cirrhosis, EarlyView.
As cirrhosis progresses from the compensated to the decompensated stage, liver disease‐related events such as varices, ascites, encephalopathy, sarcopenia, jaundice, and bleeding tendency, as well as liver carcinogenesis, can occur at a high rate. With the advent of new pharmacotherapies for cirrhosis in the last decade, liver fibrosis has been shown ...

Endothelin receptor antagonists in pulmonary arterial hypertension

open access: yesJournal of the American College of Cardiology, 2004
Endothelin receptor antagonism has emerged as an important therapeutic strategy in pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH). Laboratory and clinical investigations have clearly shown that endothelin (ET)-1 is overexpressed in several forms of pulmonary vascular disease and likely plays a significant pathogenetic role in the development and progression of ...

Human hypoxia models in aerospace medicine: Potential applications for human pharmacological research

open access: yesBritish Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Aerospace medicine required controlled terrestrial models to investigate influences of altered atmosphere conditions, such as hypoxia, on human health and performance. These models could potentially be expanded to encompass disease conditions or treatment targets regulated through hypoxia or hypercapnia.
