Endothelin 1 (swine, human) (TFA)

Endothelin 1 (swine, human) (TFA) is a synthetic peptide mirroring the sequence of the potent endogenous vasoconstrictor found in both human and swine Endothelin 1, operating via two receptor types, ET A and ET B [1].

Endothelin 1 (swine, human) is a potent endogenous vasoconstrictor peptide released primarily by endothelial cells and acting through ETA and ETB receptors. Endothelin 1 (swine, human) mediates vascular smooth-muscle contraction, promotes fibrosis, stimulates reactive oxygen species production, and induces pro-inflammatory signaling, making it central to studies of vascular dysfunction, hypertension, and oxidative stress–associated pathology.
