Endothelin 1 (ET1) is an endothelium-derived peptide. It is synthesized as an inactive form of 212 amino acids and later converted to an active 21 amino acid peptide. The gene encoding it is localized on human chromosome 6p24.1.
Immunogen
EDN1 (AAH09720, 113 a.a. ~ 212 a.a) partial recombinant protein with GST tag. MW of the GST tag alone is 26 KDa.
Endothelin 1 (ET1) is a vasoconstrictor and is involved in pulmonary vascular homeostasis. ET1 has been linked to HIV (human immunodeficiency virus)-associated pulmonary arterial hypertension and endothelial dysfunction.
Physical form
Solution in phosphate buffered saline, pH 7.4

HIV infection is an independent risk factor for PAH, but the underlying pathogenesis remains unclear. ET-1 is a robust vasoconstrictor and key mediator of pulmonary vascular homeostasis. Higher levels of ET-1 predict disease severity and mortality in other forms of

Endothelin-1 (ET-1) is a potent vasoconstrictor produced by vascular endothelial cells, and a known marker of endothelial dysfunction. However, the acute and chronic effects of smoking and nicotine gum on the ET-1 response to acute physical stress in young healthy
Acute coronary syndromes (ACS) are complex and polygenic diseases which are a real problem of public health. These syndromes require multidisciplinary studies to understand the pathogenesis mechanisms. Our study aims to evaluate the endothelin-1 (ET-1) serum concentration in Tunisian coronary
