Tosun M, Erac Y, Selli C, Karakaya N. Sarcoplasmic-endoplasmic reticulum Ca -ATPase inhibition prevents endothelin A receptor antagonism in rat aorta. Am J Physiol Heart Circ Physiol 292: H1961–H1966, 2007. First published December 15, 2006; doi:10.1152/ajpheart.00298.2006.—This study tested whether sarcoplasmic-endoplasmic reticulum Ca -ATPase regulates the ability of endothelin receptor antag...
In rings of rat portal vein, endothelin-1, endothelin-2, and endothelin-3 caused graded slow contractions and potentiated spontaneous contractions. The apparent EC50 values and maximal responses to 30 nM endothelin were 1.4 nM and 0.96 g for endothelin-1, 5.2 nM and 0.65 g for endothelin-2, and 1.7 nM and 0.62 g for endothelin-3 (n = 4-12). At concentrations producing half the contraction trigg...
We have previously reported the presence of endothelin-1 (ET-1) and its receptors in the human testis. In the present study we extended our investigations to human epididymis. The rationale of our study originated from the fact that sperm appear to be immotile during their transit through the epididymis. Hence, it is conceivable that specific factors, unknown to date, are present in this organ,...
Immunoperoxidase staining was carried out using monoclonal antibody against endothelin-1 on renal allograft biopsy specimens from thirty one patients with acute renal transplant rejection: Banff 97 score IA (n = 11), score IB (n = 10) and score IIA (n = 10). As a control 10 biopsy specimens of the kidneys removed because of trauma were used. Endothelin-1 immunostaining was investigated in the r...
To assess possible roles of endothelin in the regulation of blood pressure, we studied effects of a subpressor dose of endothelin-1 (3 micrograms/kg/day) on chronic blood pressure responses to infusion of angiotensin II and norepinephrine in rats. Rats were infused with angiotensin II at a subpressor dose (400 micrograms/kg/day i.p.) or with norepinephrine at a subpressor dose (360 micrograms/k...
The distribution of immunoreactivity for the potent vasoconstrictor endothelin-1 was studied in adult and developing human gut using antisera to endothelin-1 (1-21) and the C terminus of big endothelin-1. The coexistence of these peptides with other neuropeptides was investigated using comparative immunocytochemistry. Endothelin-1 like immunoreactivity was detected in extracts of adult (range 2...
BACKGROUND Pulmonary hypertension is characterized by an increase in vascular tone or an abnormal proliferation of muscle cells in the walls of small pulmonary arteries. Endothelin-1 is a potent endothelium-derived vasoconstrictor peptide with important mitogenic properties. It has therefore been suggested that endothelin-1 may contribute to increases in pulmonary arterial tone or smooth-muscle...
Effects of endothelin-3 on the secretion of endothelin-1 and other endothelium-derived substances were investigated in cultured human umbilical vein endothelial cells. The present binding study showed two distinct subpopulations of binding sites for endothelin-3 with higher and lower affinities in cultured human endothelial cells. Endothelin-3 caused an increase in intracellular Ca2+ and inosit...
Endothelin-1 has potent vasoconstrictor and vasopressor actions contributing to basal vascular tone and maintenance of blood pressure acting predominantly through endothelin-A receptors. Endothelin antagonists may be of value in the treatment of hypertension and heart failure. However, the role of endothelin-1 in the regulation of vascular tone and the potential benefits of endothelin antagonis...
