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...

Cholestanol and desmosterol are plasma markers of cholesterol absorption and synthesis, respectively. Because statins lower LDL-C by inhibiting cholesterol synthesis, we studied the relationship between c...
