Species variations in ET-3 inotropy caution against direct translational extrapolation; leaves open post-receptor coupling mechanisms in ventricular myocardium.
There are wide species-dependent variations in the positive inotropic effect of endothelin-3 on mammalian ventricular muscles, likely due to variations in coupling processes subsequent to phosphoinositide hydrolysis.
Yang et al. (1997) studied this question.
