Endothelin-1 Inhibits Apoptosis of Vascular Smooth Muscle Cells Induced by Nitric Oxide and Serum Deprivation via MAP Kinase Pathway

Abstract
—Endothelin (ET)-1, an endothelium-derived vasoconstrictor and mitogen, acts as an antiapoptotic factor against serum deprivation–induced apoptosis of endothelial cells and fibroblasts but ...
