CHGA — EDN1
Text-mined interactions from Literome
Chen et al., J Am Soc Nephrol 2009
(Chronic Disease...) :
Chromogranin A (CHGA) , a protein released from secretory granules of chromaffin cells and sympathetic nerves,
triggers endothelin-1 release from endothelial cells ... Here,
CHGA led to the release of
endothelin-1 and Weibel-Palade body exocytosis in cultured human umbilical vein endothelial cells ... In addition,
CHGA triggered secretion of
endothelin-1 from glomerular endothelial cells and TGF-beta1 from mesangial cells cocultured with glomerular endothelial cells
Chen et al., Cell Mol Neurobiol 2010
(Genetic Predisposition to Disease...) :
These findings, coupled with
stimulation of
endothelin-1 release from glomerular capillary endothelial cells by
CHGA , suggest a plausible mechanism whereby genetic variation at the CHGA locus eventuates in alterations in human renal function
