Based on the present findings, we suggest that: (1) CsA upregulates the gingival expression of ET-1 and its receptors; and (2) ET(A) and ET(B) have different bioactivities, ET(A) being involved in cell proliferation and ET(B) being associated with iNOS expression.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
