Endothelin-3 (ET-3) elicited a concentration-dependent positive inotropic effect on rabbit papillary muscle, the maximal response being approximately 65% of the maximal response to isoproterenol. ET-1 induced a positive inotropic effect over the concentration range below 10(-9) M, at which ET-3 did
The possible diagnostic or prognostic significance of changes in circulating level of endothelins in a variety of pathological conditions is currently of interest. Unfortunately, no consensus regarding optimization of sensitivity and extraction procedures for the reliable radioimmunoassay of endothe
