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.

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.

Furthermore, effects of a mixed ETA and ETB receptor antagonist, bosentan, were studied.

|
The gene expression of ETA and ETB receptors ET-1, ET-3 and ECE-1 was evaluated using relative multiplex reverse transcription/PCR.

|
Selective ET-1 receptor antagonists showed in the control group that the ETB subtype inhibits ETA regulation of Ca2+m.

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.

|
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.

|
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.

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.

|
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.

The contractile response of diabetic vessels to ET-1 occurs via activation of ET-A receptors and PKC-?.
