Abstract excerpt
The dual endothelin-1/angiotensin II receptor (Dear) binds endothelin-1 (ET-1) and angiotensin II (ANG II) with equal affinities in the Dahl S/JRHS rat strain. To elucidate its physiological significance within the context of multiple receptor isoforms and diverse ET-1 and ANG II functions spanning blood pressure regulation, tumor proliferation, and angiogenesis, we characterized mouse Dear and Dear-deficient...
