41 results about "Endothelin 1" patented technology

Endothelin 1 (ET-1), also known as preproendothelin-1 (PPET1), is a potent vasoconstrictor that in humans is encoded by the EDN1 gene and produced by vascular endothelial cells. The protein encoded by this gene is proteolytically processed to release a secreted peptide termed endothelin 1. Endothelin 1 is one of three isoforms of human endothelin.

The present invention provides antibodies that bind big-endothelin-1 (“big-ET-1”), and methods of using same. According to certain embodiments of the invention, the antibodies specifically bind human big-ET-1 but do not bind human small-ET-1 (i.e., the active form of endothelin-1 that results from proteolytic cleavage of big-ET-1 by endothelin-converting enzyme-1 [ECE-1]). According to certain embodiments of the invention, the anti-big-ET-1 antibodies are capable of blocking cleavage of big-ET-1 by ECE-1. The antibodies of the invention are useful for the treatment of big-ET-1-related disorders, including hypertension disorders, fibrotic disorders, neurodegenerative disorders, retinal disorders, pain and cancers.

Method of diagnosing and treating interstitial cystitis

A method for diagnosing, or differentially diagnosing, interstitial cystitis (IC) involves detecting or measuring increased expression of a biomarker Endothelin 1 (ET-1) in a biological sample from a mammalian subject, particularly in the urine or urothelial tissue. An increased level of expression of ET-1 above the level of expression in the same sample of a healthy mammalian subject is an indication of a diagnosis of IC. Such diagnosis may further involve identify other clinical symptoms of IC. Additionally the method may use additional biomarkers, such as Hb-EFG, EGF, APF, IL-8, IL-6, and cGMP. Assay methods and diagnostic reagents and kits for such diagnosis are provided.
