Plasma endothelin-1 and endothelin-A receptor concentrations in patients with primary open-angle glaucoma

Plasma endothelin-1 and endothelin-A receptor concentrations in patients with primary open-angle glaucoma

Endothelin-1 (ET-1) is a potent vasoconstrictor and is considered to have a key role in the regulation of ocular perfusion and glaucoma pathogenesis. High ET-1 and ETA-receptor levels are reported in patients with primary open-angle glaucoma (POAG). We compared the mean plasma ET-1 and ETA-receptor...
