Pathophysiological Roles of Endothelin Receptors in Cardiovascular Diseases
Journal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2012 Endothelin (ET)-1 derived from endothelial cells has a much more important role in cardiovascular system regulation than the ET-2 and ET-3 isoforms. Numerous lines of evidence indicate that ET-1 possesses a number of biological activities leading to ...
