Schematic representation of functional ET-1 receptors in the kidney. Glomerulus (podocytes and mesangial cells) express primarily ETA receptors. In renal microcirculation both ETA and ETB receptors are expressed. Renal tubules contain mainly ETB receptors, with more expression in the thick ascending limb and the collecting duct.
