Cardiovascular actions of xamoterol (ICI 118,587) in anaesthetized cats, rats, and guinea pigs.

abstract：:Endothelin-1 (ET-1) is a 21-amino-acid local and circulating factor whose plasma concentrations are increased in advanced atherosclerosis. ET-1 is cleaved from a prohormone (big ET-1) by endothelin-converting enzymes (ECEs) into the biologically active mature form which mediates vasoconstriction and cell proliferation...
