ABSTRACT

ABSTRACT

Endothelin (ET)-1 levels were analyzed in patients who underwent elective coronary stenting. There was a significant increase in systemic ET-1 levels immediately after the procedure, which is probably a marker of endothelial dysfunction that is associated with arterial injury. However, there was no association between ET-1 levels and in-stent restenosis in humans.
