Developmental changes in Endothelin-1 and Endothelin type A receptor expression in the lungs of chickens (Broiler versus layer)
Background: Broilers lung mechanisms that regulate endothelin (ET) in the lung are complex and poorly understood. Objectives: Methods: In this experiment lung ET-1 mRNA levels and lung mRNA expression for the ET(A) receptors were determined in lung tissue weekly (term = 42 days, intervals = 7 days). Serum endothelin concentration was also measured at these ages. Results: The study showed that e...
متن کاملUpregulation of Endothelin-1/Endothelin A Receptor Expression Correlates with Heparanase Expression in Ovarian Carcinoma
Background: Heparanase and endothelin-1/endothelin A receptor (ET-1/ETAR) expressions increase in cancer. This condition enhances tumor progression and correlates with poor survival. Limited data are documented regarding the role of heparanase and ET-1/ETAR in epithelial ovarian cancer (EOC). We sought to characterize the correlation between heparanase and ET-1/ETAR in EOC.Methods: Thirty patie...
متن کاملGene expression of endothelin-1, endothelin-converting enzyme-1, and endothelin receptors in human epididymis.
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,...
متن کاملEndothelin-1 and osteoblastic metastasis.
W hen cancer metastasizes to distant sites, it essentially forms an army of occupation. Just as the presence of an army of occupation alters the behavior of the preexisting resident population, the resident host cells react in a variety of ways to the presence of the metastatic cancer cells. In the majority of cases, they increase their resorptive or destructive capacity, and the result is an o...
متن کاملEndothelin-1 (1-31) is an intermediate in the production of endothelin-1 after big endothelin-1 administration in vivo.
The precursor of endothelin-1, big endothelin-1, can be hydrolyzed by chymase to generate endothelin-1 (1-31) in vitro. In the present study, we explored the processes involved in the production of endothelin-1 (1-31) as well as its pharmacodynamic characteristics in the rabbit in vivo. Endothelin-1 (1-31) (1 nmol/kg, injected into the left cardiac ventricle) induced a monophasic increase of me...
