摘要: Endothelins are structurally related peptides with powerful vasoconstrictor properties [1]. Endothelin-1 was initially isolated from the endothelium [1], whereas structure of endothelin-2 and -3 deduced their cDNAs [2]. known today to be synthetized by many tissues [3–5]. In blood vessels, endothelin-1 is produced both in [1, 2] smooth muscle cells [6]. Release stimulated low shear stress [7], hypoxia, thrombin, angiotensin II, vasopressin, norepinephrine, bradykinin transforming growth factor β-1 (TGFβ-1) 8, 9]. High a potent inhibitor secretion [10].
