Endothelin Receptor Signaling: New Insight Into Its Regulatory Mechanisms

The endothelin (ET) system consists of two G protein coupled–receptors (GPCRs), ET type A receptor (ETAR) and ET type B receptor (ETBR), and three endogenous ligands, ET-1, ET-2, and ET-3. Stimulation of ETRs with ET-1 induces an increase in intracellular Ca2+ concentration that is involved in a div...
