Atrial natriuretic factor [PDF]

open access: yesCurrent Opinion in Cardiology, 1987
The discovery of the first well-defined natriuretic hormone, the Atrial Natriuretic Factor (ANF), has prompted research on its impact on volume regulation in health and disease.

Augmentation of the natriuretic response to atrial natriuretic factor in cirrhosis [PDF]

open access: yesHepatology, 1989
The effects of atrial natriuretic factor (ANF) on splanchnic hemodynamics and renal function in portal hypertensive models are described incompletely. Furthermore, ANF–induced vasodilatation and hypotension may limit the assessment of its own renal physiological effects.

Cardiac Biomarkers and Risk of Atrial Fibrillation in Chronic Kidney Disease: The CRIC Study [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2019
Background We tested associations of cardiac biomarkers of myocardial stretch, injury, inflammation, and fibrosis with the risk of incident atrial fibrillation (AF) in a prospective study of chronic kidney disease patients.

Atrial Natriuretic Factor

open access: yesJournal of Biological Chemistry, 1989
ANF is an exciting, newly discovered hormone that has significant potential for furthering our understanding of the complex interactions involved in fluid and electrolyte balance. In addition to effects on water and salt balance, it is a potent vasodilator, as well as inhibitor of renin, angiotensin II, aldosterone, and vasopressin.

Atrial Natriuretic Peptide31–67: A Novel Therapeutic Factor for Cardiovascular Diseases

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2021
The characterization of the cardiac hormone atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP99–126), synthesized and secreted predominantly by atrial myocytes under stimulation by mechanical stretch, has established the heart as an endocrine organ with potent natriuretic,

Biomarkers and Echocardiographic Predictors of Cardiovascular Outcome in Patients With Chronic Chagas Disease

open access: yesJournal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2023
Background Chagas disease (CD) presents an ominous prognosis. The predictive value of biomarkers and new echocardiogram parameters in adjusted models have not been well studied.

Irisin attenuates angiotensin II-induced atrial fibrillation and atrial fibrosis via LOXL2 and TGFβ1/Smad2/3 signaling pathways [PDF]

open access: yesIranian Journal of Basic Medical Sciences, 2023
Objective(s): Irisin was reported as a cardioprotective and anti-oxidative effector, while the effect on atrial fibrosis is unknown. The current research examined irisin’s function in atrial fibrillation (AF); atrial fibrosis brought on by Ang II can be ...

Trypanosoma cruzi infection and endothelin-1 cooperatively activate pathogenic inflammatory pathways in cardiomyocytes. [PDF]

open access: yesPLoS Neglected Tropical Diseases, 2013
Trypanosoma cruzi, the causative agent of Chagas' disease, induces multiple responses in the heart, a critical organ of infection and pathology in the host.

NRSF/REST-Mediated Epigenomic Regulation in the Heart: Transcriptional Control of Natriuretic Peptides and Beyond

open access: yesBiology, 2022
Reactivation of fetal cardiac genes, including those encoding atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) and brain natriuretic peptide (BNP), is a key feature of pathological cardiac remodeling and heart failure.
