Regulation and Roles of Urocortins in the Vascular System
Urocortins (Ucns) are members of the corticotropin-releasing factor (CRF) family of peptides. Ucns would have potent effects on the cardiovascular system via the CRF receptor type 2 (CRF2 receptor). Regulation and roles of each Ucn have been determined in the vascular system. Ucns have more potent v...
