Endothelins and liver cirrhosis
Portal Hypertension & Cirrhosis, 2022 Endothelins are a family of 21‐amino acid oligopeptides, called endothelin‐1 (ET‐1), endothelin‐2 (ET‐2), and endothelin 3 (ET‐3). Endothelins act on hepatocytes, liver endothelial cells, and Kupffer cells in a paracrine or autocrine manner through two G

Role of Vasoactive Hormone-Induced Signal Transduction in Cardiac Hypertrophy and Heart Failure [PDF]
CellsHeart failure is the common concluding pathway for a majority of cardiovascular diseases and is associated with cardiac dysfunction. Since heart failure is invariably preceded by adaptive or maladaptive cardiac hypertrophy, several biochemical mechanisms
