Abstract excerpt

Urotensin-II (U-II), along its receptor UT, is widely expressed in the cardiovascular system, where it exerts regulatory actions under both physiological and pathological conditions. In the present study, human vascular endothelial cells (EC) from one arterious and three venous vascular beds were used to investigate in vitro their heterogeneity in terms of expression of U-II and UT and of angiogenic response to...
