Drug treatment of hypertension: focus on vascular health [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
Hypertension, the most common preventable risk factor for cardiovascular disease and death, is a growing health burden. Serious cardiovascular complications result from target organ damage including cerebrovascular disease, heart failure, ischaemic heart

β-Arrestin 1 is required for endothelin-1-induced NF-κB activation in ovarian cancer cells [PDF]

open access: yes, 2014
Aims In epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC), activation of endothelin-1 (ET-1)/endothelin A receptor (ETAR) signalling is linked to many tumor promoting effects, such as proliferation, angiogenesis, invasion and metastasis. These effects are dependent by the

Vascular derived endothelin receptor A controls endothelin-induced retinal ganglion cell death

open access: yesCell Death Discovery, 2022
Endothelin (EDN, also known as ET) signaling has been suggested to be an important mediator of retinal ganglion cell (RGC) death in glaucoma. Antagonism of EDN receptors (EDNRA and EDNRB, also known as ET-A and ET-B) prevented RGC death in mouse models ...

The dual endothelin converting enzyme/neutral endopeptidase inhibitor SLV-306 (daglutril), inhibits systemic conversion of big endothelin-1 in humans [PDF]

open access: yes, 2012
Aims - Inhibition of neutral endopeptidases (NEP) results in a beneficial increase in plasma concentrations of natriuretic peptides such as ANP.

The Effect of Endothelin-1 on Gene Expression of Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide Phosphate (NADPH) Oxidase via Transforming Growth Factor Beta (TGF–β) Receptor in Human Aortic Smooth Muscle Cells

open access: yesمجله دانشکده پزشکی اصفهان, 2018
Background: Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH) oxidase (Nox) is one of the predominant sources of the production of free oxygen radicals in the vascular wall.

Endothelin receptor antagonism and cancer [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Clinical Investigation, 2009
AbstractThe endothelin peptides have an important role in the cancer‐stromal interactions that promote tumour growth. Endothelin‐1 (ET‐1), clinically the most investigated endothelin, is a vital agent in the growth and progression of several tumours including prostate, ovarian, colorectal, bladder, breast and lung carcinomas.

Examining the role of insulin in the regulation of cardiovascular health [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
A substantial body of evidence has reported that insulin has direct actions on the cardiovascular system independent of its systemic effects on plasma glucose or lipids.

Endothelin type A receptors mediate pain in a mouse model of sickle cell disease

open access: yesHaematologica, 2018
Sickle cell disease is associated with acute painful episodes and chronic intractable pain. Endothelin-1, a known pain inducer, is elevated in the blood plasma of both sickle cell patients and mouse models of sickle cell disease.

Medication adherence, hospitalization, and healthcare resource utilization and costs in patients with pulmonary arterial hypertension treated with endothelin receptor antagonists or phosphodiesterase type-5 inhibitors

open access: yesPulmonary Circulation, 2020
Adherence to therapy for pulmonary arterial hypertension is essential to optimize patient outcomes, but data on real-world adherence to different pulmonary arterial hypertension drug classes are limited.

Rescue with an anti-inflammatory peptide of chickens infected H5N1 avian flu [PDF]

open access: yes, 2009
Chickens suffering from avian flu caused by H5N1 influenza virus are destined to die within 2 days due to a systemic inflammatory response. Since HVJ infection (1,2) and influenza virus infection (3,4) cause infected cells to activate homologous serum ...
