Anti-Graying Effects of External and Internal Treatments with Luteolin on Hair in Model Mice [PDF]
AntioxidantsLittle is known about the anti-graying effects of antioxidants on hair. The anti-graying effects of three antioxidants (luteolin, hesperetin, and diosmetin) on hair were investigated according to the sequential processes of hair graying that were ...

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

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

Endothelins and Sarafotoxins: Peptides of Similar Structure and Different Function
Acta Medica, 2004 Endothelins are endogenous vasoactive peptides that are considered among the most potent vasoconstrictor substances known. In addition to their vascular effects, endothelins and their receptors have been shown to be present in many organs and share ...

Endothelin B Receptors on Primary Chicken Müller Cells and the Human MIO-M1 Müller Cell Line Activate ERK Signaling via Transactivation of Epidermal Growth Factor Receptors. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2016 Injury to the eye or retina triggers Müller cells, the major glia cell of the retina, to dedifferentiate and proliferate. In some species they attain retinal progenitor properties and have the capacity to generate new neurons. The epidermal growth factor

Cryo-EM structure of the endothelin-1-ETB-Gi complex
eLife, 2023 The endothelin ETB receptor is a promiscuous G-protein coupled receptor that is activated by vasoactive peptide endothelins. ETB signaling induces reactive astrocytes in the brain and vasorelaxation in vascular smooth muscle.
