"What we call the beginning is often the end, and to make an end is
to make a beginning. The end is where we start from." T. S. ELIOT,
"Geroniton" The discovery of endothelin-l was both an end and a
beginning. It is an end because this discovery has started a
plethora of investigations as to endothe1in's sites of production,
mode of action, it's normal and abnormal physiological role and its
involvement in a variety of pathological conditions ranging from
renal failure to myocardial infarction, cardiac hypertrophy,
hyperten sion, cyclosporine induced toxicity, mental depression,
renal failure, stress related illness, and even stroke and sudden
death. It is a beginning because no one can foresee where the
investigations will ultimately lead, or how they will end. The
discovery of the endothelins was a very recent event and soon
specialist books will start to appear dealing in detail with
different aspects of their chemistry, physiological role and
pathological importance. The present book is intended to act as a
guide and primer for those who are becoming intrigued by the many
endothelin related articles which are now appearing in the journals
but who as yet have not had the time or opportunity to be caught up
in the web of enthusiasm and excitement which is motivating those
more directly involved in the field of research.
