Adenoviral gene transfer of endothelin-1 in the lung induces pulmonary fibrosis through the activation of focal adhesion kinase

Endothelin-1 (ET-1) has been implicated in the development of pulmonary fibrosis, based on its capacity in vitro to promote extracellular matrix (ECM) production and contraction, and on studies showing elevated expression of ET-1 and its receptors in patients with pulmonary fibrosis. However, the in...
