Role of the 3′-Untranslated Region of Human Endothelin-1 in Vascular Endothelial Cells
27 Feb 2004
Abstract excerpt
Endothelin-1 (ET-1) is a potent vasoconstrictor peptide expressed in the vascular endothelium. Stringent control over ET-1 expression is achieved through a highly regulated promoter and rapid mRNA turnover. Since little is known about mechanisms governing ET-1 post-transcriptional regulation, and changes in ET-1 mRNA stability are implicated in disease processes, we characterized these pathways using a variety of...
