The angiotensin II receptor antagonist valsartan inhibits endothelin 1-induced vasoconstriction in the skin microcirculation in humans in vivo: influence of the G-protein beta3 subunit (GNB3) C825T polymorphism.

Abstract excerpt

OBJECTIVE: We investigated the influence of angiotensin II receptor blockade on angiotensin II-induced, endothelin 1 (ET-1)-induced, and norepinephrine-induced vasoconstriction to further characterize interactions of the 3 major pressor systems. ET-1, angiotensin II, and norepinephrine act via G...
