The Effect of Endothelin-1 on Gene Expression of Nicotinamide Adenine Dinucleotide Phosphate (NADPH) Oxidase via Transforming Growth Factor Beta (TGF–β) Receptor in Human Aortic Smooth Muscle Cells
Background: Nicotinamide adenine dinucleotide phosphate (NADPH) oxidase (Nox) is one of the predominant sources of the production of free oxygen radicals in the vascular wall. Endothelin-1 is a potent vasoconstrictor factor that also has mitogenic activity in vascular smooth muscle cells. The activa...
