“…Phosphoramidon blocks both exogenous and endogenous big ET-1 conversion in bovine aortic endothelial cells (Corder et al, 1993) while phosphoramidon studies in rat in vitro provides evidence that big ET-1 conversion occurs outside the vessel lumen (Corder & Vane, 1994). The ECE in bovine and porcine smooth muscle also appears to be sensitive to phosphoramidon (Hioki et al, 1991;Matsumura et al, 1990;Tsukahara et al, 1993). More (Fujitani et al, 1992 Addenbrooke's hypothesized that autocrine ET secretion 'masks' ET receptors, so that inhibition of big ET-l conversion would reveal more ET-1 receptors in binding studies.…”

“…ECE expressed on endothelial cells may also differ to ECE expressed on vascular smooth muscle cells. Whilst endothelial ECE has been found to have specificity for big ET‐1 ( Plumpton et al ., 1996 ; Davenport et al ., 1998b ), smooth muscle ECE is capable of processing big ET‐1, big ET‐2 and big ET‐3 ( Tsukahara et al ., 1993 ; Maguire et al ., 1997 ; Davenport et al ., 1998b ). The physiological role of this and other novel putative converting enzymes on regulation of ET production remains to be determined.…”
