Atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) plays a pivotal role in the regulation of the cardiovascular system. The ANP level increases during atrial fibrillation (AF), suggesting that AF may provoke ANP secretion, but its potential mechanism is still unclear.

Natriuretic peptides and their usefulness in clinical practise
Natriuretic peptides are peptic hormones produced by atrial and ventricular myocytes, and by endothelium of blood vessels, that take part in homeostatic control of water and sodium levels, but also potassium transport, lipolysis in adipocytes and blood ...

Acute effects of insulin on circulating natriuretic peptide levels in humans. [PDF]
The natriuretic peptide hormones play an important role in salt and blood pressure regulation. In observational studies, obesity and insulin resistance have been consistently associated with lower concentrations of natriuretic peptides.
