Other Information

**Key Characteristics** EDN3 exhibits several key characteristics that distinguish it from other endothelins: 1. **Vasoconstrictive properties**: EDN3 is a potent vasoconstrictor that induces vascular smooth muscle contraction, leading to increased blood pressure and reduced blood flow. 2. **Receptor specificity**: EDN3 binds to endothelin B receptors (ETBR), which are G-protein coupled receptors that activate a signaling cascade that regulates various cellular processes. 3. **Cellular expression**: EDN3 is expressed in a wide range of cell types, including endothelial cells, smooth muscle cells, immune cells, and neural crest cells. 4. **Signaling pathways**: EDN3 activates various signaling pathways, including G-protein coupled receptor signaling, MAP kinase signaling, and calcium ion homeostasis. **Pathways and Functions** EDN3 regulates various physiological and pathological processes through its interaction with endothelin B receptors: 1. **Vascular tone regulation**: EDN3 induces vasoconstriction, increasing blood pressure and reducing blood flow to specific tissues. 2. **Cell proliferation and differentiation**: EDN3 regulates cell proliferation and differentiation in various cell types, including endothelial cells, smooth muscle cells, and immune cells. 3. **Immune function**: EDN3 modulates immune responses, including neutrophil chemotaxis, leukocyte chemotaxis, and melanocyte differentiation. 4. **Neurological function**: EDN3 is involved in axon extension, axon guidance, and neural crest cell migration, highlighting its role in neuronal development and function. 5. **Cardiovascular function**: EDN3 regulates heart rate, cardiac endothelial cell function, and systemic arterial blood pressure. **Clinical Significance** Dysregulation of EDN3 has been implicated in various cardiovascular and immune disorders, including: 1. **Hypertension**: Increased EDN3 expression has been linked to hypertension, suggesting a potential therapeutic target for blood pressure regulation. 2. **Atherosclerosis**: EDN3 has been shown to contribute to atherosclerosis, a disease characterized by the buildup of plaque in arterial walls. 3. **Neurological disorders**: EDN3 has been implicated in neurological disorders, including stroke, multiple sclerosis, and neurodegenerative diseases. 4. **Cancer**: EDN3 has been shown to promote cancer progression, suggesting its potential as a therapeutic target in cancer therapy. In conclusion, EDN3 is a multifunctional peptide hormone that plays a critical role in maintaining vascular homeostasis, immune function, and neuronal development. Its dysregulation has been implicated in various cardiovascular and immune disorders, highlighting the need for further research into its mechanisms of action and potential therapeutic applications.
