Abstract Introduction We recently demonstrated that the non-selective endothelin-1 ET-1 receptor blocker tezosentan antagonizes ovine acute lung injury ALI following infusion of endotoxin or ET-1 by reducing the enhanced lung microvascular pressure although we could not exclude the possibility of a simultaneous decline in microvascular permeability. In the present study our
