Function
Endothelins are endothelium-derived vasoconstrictor peptides.
Biological Context
Subcellular Location: Secreted
Tissue Specificity: Expressed in trophoblasts and placental stem villi vessels, but not in cultured placental smooth muscle cells
Disease Association: Hirschsprung disease 4 (HSCR4) : A disorder of neural crest development characterized by absence of enteric ganglia along a variable length of the intestine. It is the most common cause of congenital intestinal obstruction. Early symptoms range from complete acute neonatal obstruction, characterized by vomiting, abdominal distention and failure to pass stool, to chronic constipation in the older child. [The disease is caused by variants affecting the gene represented in this entry] | Waardenburg syndrome 4B (WS4B) : A disorder characterized by the association of Waardenburg features (depigmentation and deafness) with the absence of enteric ganglia in the distal part of the intestine (Hirschsprung disease).
