Journal ArticleDOI

Characterization of phosphoramidon-sensitive metalloproteinases with endothelin-converting enzyme activity in porcine lung membrane

TL;DR: The finding that neither thiorphan nor bacitracin affected the conversion of endogenously synthesized big ET-1 in cultured endothelial cells is concluded, suggesting that physiologically relevant ECE found in the endothelial Cells is more similar to M1 than to M2.
Journal ArticleDOI

Endothelin-1 mediates regional blood flow during and after pulmonary operations.

TL;DR: The present findings provide a novel hypothesis that the preferential release of endothelin-1 from the peripheral vasculature of the forearm may partly contribute to a compensatory response to surgical stress, for example, the reduction of local blood flow in nonvital organs so as to increase theBlood flow in vital organs.
Journal ArticleDOI

A combination of oral endothelin-areceptor antagonist and oral prostacyclinanalogue is superior to each drug alone inameliorating pulmonary hypertension in rats

TL;DR: The combination of an oral ETA receptor antagonist and an oral prostacyclin (PGI2) analogue is superior to the single use of each drug alone for treating pulmonary hypertension (PH) as mentioned in this paper.
Journal ArticleDOI

Endothelin receptor antagonist reverses decreased NO system in the kidney in vivo during exercise

TL;DR: It is provided a possibility that the exercise-induced increase in production of ET-1 in the kidney causes a decrease in blood flow in the kidneys through two pathways, i.e., vasoconstrictive action and the action of attenuating NO production.
Journal Article

Intramural nerve-mediated inotropic responses of left atria of rats and guinea pigs: demonstration of alpha adrenergic and nonadrenergic noncholinergic responses in guinea pigs.

TL;DR: It is demonstrated that TNS excitated adrenergic, cholinergic and nonadrenergic noncholinergic nerves in guinea pig left atria.
