Abstract:
Plasma immunoreactive endothelin concentrations were measured in patients with uraemia and in non-uraemic controls. Concentrations were beneath the detection limit of the assay in most patients without uraemia but were readily detectable in those undergoing haemodialysis. Plasma endothelin concentrations in patients with uraemia who were not undergoing haemodialysis were lower than in those on maintenance dialysis.
