Endogenous Ouabain (EO)

Target
EO
Molecular classification
Steroid hormone, Endogenous ligand
01

Overview

Endogenous ouabain (EO) is a steroid hormone that acts as an inhibitor and signaling molecule through binding to the Na⁺/K⁺-ATPase pump. It plays a role in sodium homeostasis, vascular smooth muscle contractility, and blood pressure regulation. Elevated levels are associated with hypertension.
