Atrial natriuretic factor in hypovolemic tachycardia
Experientia, 1987Atrial natriuretic factor (ANF) is released in response to many stimuli which increase right atrial pressure. Following hemorrhage pigs lowered their atrial pressures, developed a tachycardia and increased ANF levels. Electrical pacing increased heart rate and ANF levels. There is a stimulus to ANF release other than atrial stretch, probably heart rate.

Angiotensin decreases cyclic GMP accumulation produced by atrial natriuretic factor.
American Journal of Physiology, 1987Atrial natriuretic factor (ANF) produced rapid increases in cyclic GMP (cGMP) in cultured aortic smooth muscle cells. Angiotensin II (ANG II) markedly decreased the accumulation of cGMP that was evoked by ANF.

1986
Various groups have recently reported on the existence of atrial natriuretic peptides (ANP) in secretorylike granules present in the myocytes of mammalian atria. These newly isolated peptides include the atrial natriuretic factors (ANF) (Grammer et al., 1983; Thibault et al., 1983a,b, 1984; Lazure et al., 1984; Napier et al., 1984a; Seidah et al., 1984)

Atrial natriuretic factor is a circulating hormone
Biochemical and Biophysical Research Communications, 1984The radioimmunoassay of atrial natriuretic factor (ANF) has been applied for determination of immunoreactive ANF (IR-ANF) in rat plasma. Immunoreactive ANF has been extracted from rat plasma by immunoaffinity column on Sepharose-4B anti-ANF or by Vycor glass. The mean concentrations of IR-ANF in ether anesthetized rats were found to be 1.61 +/- 0.14 ng/

Atrial natriuretic factor-SV40 T antigen transgenes produce tumors and cardiac arrhythmias in mice.
Science, 1988Transgenic mice that carry fusions between the transcriptional regulatory sequences of atrial natriuretic factor (a hormone intimately involved in the regulation of blood pressure) and those encoding SV40 T antigen (an oncoprotein) were generated ...

Clearance function of type C receptors of atrial natriuretic factor in rats.
American Journal of Physiology, 1989The overwhelming majority of atrial natriuretic factor (ANF) receptors in kidney and vascular tissues do not mediate any of the known functional effects of the hormone. To test whether these receptors (C-ANF receptors) function as clearance receptors for

Atrial Natriuretic Factor: A Historic Perspective
The American Journal of the Medical Sciences, 1987Atrial natriuretic factor (ANF) is a relatively newly discovered hormone. Its discovery was the culmination of almost a half century of research. This article reviews some of the data leading up to its discovery. In addition, the issue of its physiologic role in volume expansion is considered.

Radioreceptor assay for atrial natriuretic factor
Analytical Biochemistry, 1988Interest in accurate measurement of atrial natriuretic factor (ANF) in biological fluids and various tissues has been stimulated by recent data indicating the possible role of ANF in the homeostasis of salt and water. The presence of high-affinity binding sites for ANF in rat glomeruli has allowed us to develop a rapid, sensitive, and simple ...

Atrial natriuretic factors and the brain: an update
Trends in Neurosciences, 1988Abstract The heart is an endocrine organ. The atria synthesize and release into the bloodstream a family of peptides known as atrial natriuretic factors (ANF). ANF-like peptides act on various target tissues such as blood vessels, adrenals and kidneys to regulate homeostasis.
