General description

Endothelin consists of a family of potent vasoconstrictor peptides, which include four structurally related isoforms, ET-1, ET-2, ET-3 and vasointestinal contractor (VIC, β -ET)

Specificity

The antibody shows little cross-reactivity to related peptides and no known cross-reactivity to non-related peptides.

Immunogen

endothelin-1 (ET-1) conjugated to KLH

Application

Monoclonal Anti-Endothelin-1 antibody produced in mouse is suitable for immunoblotting and immunocytochemistry.It is also suitable for radioimmunoassay (RIA) at a working dilution of 1:25,000 and for immunohistochemistry at 1:250 working dilution using formalin-fixed, paraffin-embedded tissue sections.

Biochem/physiol Actions

ET-1, a 21 amino acid peptide, is produced by vascular endothelial cells. It is a potent vasoconstrictor and plays an important role in the homeostasis of the circulatory system. It is also important in pathogenesis of cardiovascular diseases. It is also involved in contraction of airway and intestinal smooth muscle. It releases vasodilator prostaglandins and nitric oxide (NO). It also plays a role in mitogenic effects on vascular smooth muscle cells and fibroblasts, stimulation of atrial natriuretic peptide secretion from atrial cardiocytes and inhibition of renin release. ET-1 is expressed in the spinal cord and dorsal root ganglia, where it may serve as a neurotransmitter/neuromodulator.

The effect of endothelin on renin release from isolated rat glomeruli was examined. Endothelin inhibited basal renin release in a dose-dependent manner with an IC50 of 1.0 x 10(-9) M. Endothelin also inhibited renin release stimulated by isoproterenol (10(-5) M).
