Knockout of endothelin type B receptor signaling attenuates bleomycin-induced skin sclerosis in mice

BACKGROUND: Endothelin-1 (ET-1) is important in the pathogenesis of systemic sclerosis (SSc). ET-1 binds two receptors, endothelin type A (ET(A)) and endothelin type B (ET(B)). Dual ET(A)/ET(B) receptor antagonists and a selective ET(A) receptor antagonist are used clinically to treat SSc, and the e...
