Endothelial nitric oxide synthase-enhancing G-protein coupled receptor antagonist inhibits pulmonary artery hypertension by endothelin-1-dependent and endothelin-1-independent pathways in a monocrotaline model
This study investigates whether endothelin-1 (ET-1) mediates monocrotaline (MCT)-induced pulmonary artery hypertension (PAH) and right ventricular hypertrophy (RVH), and if so, whether the G-protein coupled receptor antagonist KMUP-1 (7-{2-[4-(2-chlorobenzene)piperazinyl]ethyl}-1,3-dimethylxanthine)...
