Ethanol-induced folate deficiency is due to effects of ethanol on folate metabolism and absorption. We have already shown by using different methods that ethanol interferes with reabsorption of folate from the proximal tubule. In this study, we have used

Comparison of plasma endothelin levels between osteoporotic, osteopenic and normal subjects
Background It has been demonstrated that endothelins (ET) have significant roles in bone remodeling, metabolism and physiopathology of several bone diseases. We aimed to investigate if there was any difference between the plasma ET levels of osteoporotic

Why two endothelins and two receptors for ovulation and luteal regulation?
The ovary is a dynamic organ that undergoes cyclic structural and functional changes. Structurally, the internal architecture of the ovary constantly changes as follicles grow, rupture and transform into corpora lutea in a cyclical manner.

ABSTRACT Background Children with congenital heart disease (CHD) frequently undergo cardiac magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) under anesthesia. Although these procedures lack surgical stimulus, patients remain physiologically vulnerable, and the incidence of perioperative cardiovascular instability in this setting is poorly defined.

Current Cell/Organoid and Animal Models for Primary Sclerosing Cholangitis
Primary sclerosing cholangitis (PSC) is a chronic cholestatic liver disease with limited therapeutic options and a marked risk of progression to biliary fibrosis, cirrhosis, and malignancy. Progress in PSC research has been hindered by the lack of models that faithfully recapitulate the complex biliary microenvironment and disease heterogeneity ...

The pathochemical role of endothelins in kidney diseases [PDF]
Introduction. Endothelin-1(ET-1) is an important regulator of kidney function in health and disease. ET-1, largely through activation of endothelin A receptors, has been strongly implicated in renal cell injury, proteinuria, inflammation and fibrosis ...

Structural basis of antagonist selectivity in endothelin receptors
Endothelins and their receptors, ETA and ETB, play vital roles in maintaining vascular homeostasis. Therapeutically targeting endothelin receptors, particularly through ETA antagonists, has shown efficacy in treating pulmonary arterial hypertension (PAH)
