Putative receptors for endothelin were localised autoradiographically in frozen sections of rat and human brain using [125I]endothelin as a ligand. In the rat brain the highest densities were in the granular layer of the cerebellum, choroid plexus, hippocampus, and habenular nucleus. Similar brain high densities were found in the human cerebellum and hippocampus. The non-vascular pattern of distribution suggests that endothelin may have a function as a modulator of neuronal function in addition to its possible involvement in the regulation of vascular tone.

D001921 Brain The part of CENTRAL NERVOUS SYSTEM that is contained within the skull (CRANIUM). Arising from the NEURAL TUBE, the embryonic brain is comprised of three major parts including PROSENCEPHALON (the forebrain); MESENCEPHALON (the midbrain); and RHOMBENCEPHALON (the hindbrain). The developed brain consists of CEREBRUM; CEREBELLUM; and other structures in the BRAIN STEM. Encephalon
