Biochem/physiol Actions

Endothelin receptor type A (ETA, ETAR) is a human G protein-coupled receptor that mediates vasoconstriction of blood vessels. It is involved in tumor cell invasion, survival and metastasis. ETAR mediates the promotion of ET-1 on colon cancer cell survival, invasion and MMP-2 expression by a PI3K-mediated mechanism. It plays a critical role in colon cancer metastasis.

Physical form

Lyophilized from a solution of phosphate buffered saline, pH 7.4, containing 1% bovine serum albumin and 0.05% sodium azide.

The endothelin (ET)-1/endothelin A receptor (ETAR) axis is reportedly involved in tumor cell invasion, survival, and metastasis. However, the role of ETAR in colon cancer metastasis and the underlying mechanisms have not been defined. In the present study, we assessed

Endothelins (ETs) are very potent vasoconstrictive peptides and have diverse functions in both vascular and nonvascular tissues. This investigation concerns the tissue distribution and cellular localization of rat mRNAs encoding two different subtypes of ET receptors (ETA and ETB). We

A growing body of evidence suggests that the vasoactive peptides endothelins (ETs) and their receptors (primarily the ETB receptor) are contributors to neurodegeneration in glaucoma. However, actions of ETs in retinal ganglion cells (RGCs) are not fully understood. The purpose
