L-arginine and tetrahydrobiopterin modulate endothelin-1A receptor activity in isolated rat aorta
Endothelin-1 (ET-1), is a potent endogenous vasoconstrictor secreted by endothelial cells. It acts as the natural counterpart of the vasodilator effect of nitric oxide (NO). ET-1 exert it is the vasoconstrictor activity through two types of receptors, ET-1A and ET-1B receptors that are located on va...
