1 8365355 This increase in receptor density probably resulted from the stimulation of receptor protein production, because insulin caused a maximal 2.3 +/- 0.3 (+/- SEM) fold increase in the ETA receptor mRNA expressed in cultured VSMC by 4 h.
2 9533832 Cross-linking of [125I]ET-1 and [125I]ET-3 to ciliary body membranes resulted in the labeling of two bands with apparent molecular masses of 52 and 34 kDa, suggesting that ETA and ETB receptors have similar molecular mass.
3 11127715 Furthermore, effects of a mixed ETA and ETB receptor antagonist, bosentan, were studied.
4 11139780 The gene expression of ETA and ETB receptors ET-1, ET-3 and ECE-1 was evaluated using relative multiplex reverse transcription/PCR.
5 12663685 Selective ET-1 receptor antagonists showed in the control group that the ETB subtype inhibits ETA regulation of Ca2+m.
6 15838254 Furthermore, ETA receptor blockade is effective in increasing ETB receptor gene expression, suggesting a potential role for endothelin ETA antagonists in the treatment of type 1 diabetes.
7 16080914 The retina from the diabetic rats showed increased ET-1 mRNA expression after 2 weeks, while no changes were found for ET-3, ET-A and ET-B.
8 16906650 Here, we report that down-regulated VEGF expression in the diabetic rat heart is normalized by an endothelin ETA receptor antagonist, suggesting that endothelin antagonism may be a novel therapeutic strategy for diabetic heart.
9 20727565 We compared the contractile responses to endothelin-1 (ET-1) with and without the inhibition of ET-A receptors and protein kinase C-alpha (PKC-?) in the human peripheral microvasculature of diabetic and case-matched, nondiabetic patients.
10 20727565 Microvascular constriction was assessed by videomicroscopy in response to ET-1 with and without an endothelin-A (ET-A) receptor antagonist, an endothelin B (ET-B) antagonist, or a PKC-? inhibitor.
11 20727565 The contractile response of diabetic vessels to ET-1 occurs via activation of ET-A receptors and PKC-?.
