The human endothelins represent a gene family comprised of endothelin-1, endothelin-2, and endothelin-3, also known as ET-1, ET-2, and ET-3.
Endothelins can affect the central nervous system and neuronal excitability, and they elicit potent vasoconstrictor action.
The two receptor subtypes responsible for inducing vasoconstriction and vasodilation, ETA and ETB, have different receptor affinities for ET-1, ET-2, and ET-3.
Of the three isopeptides, ET-2 has the most potent vasoconstrictor activity.
Biologically active ETs are proteolytically generated from a larger precursor, the big-endothelin, by action of the endothelin-converting enzyme (ECE) family.
ET-1 is a potent, 21aa vasoconstrictor peptide produced by vascular endothelial cells.
The ET-2 cDNA is 1.3kb in length and encodes a proprotein consisting of 178aa residues.
ET3 mRNA encodes a 230aa precursor that includes ET3 and a 15aa homologous segment called the ET3-like sequence.
