A new natriuretic peptide in porcine brain
Nature, 1988Atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP), a hormone secreted from mammalian atria, regulates the homoeostatic balance of body fluid and blood pressure. ANP-like immunoreactivity is also present in the brain, suggesting that the peptide functions as a neuropeptide.

Brain natriuretic peptide: a biomarker for all cardiac disease?
Current Opinion in Cardiology, 2014To evaluate new development in the utility of brain natriuretic peptide and N-Terminal brain natriuretic peptide (BNP/NT-Pro-BNP) in the management of various cardiovascular diseases. The determination of plasma BNP levels has an established role in the discrimination of pulmonary oedema from other causes of acute dyspnoea, and there is increasing ...

Our purpose was to compare the actions of atrial natriuretic peptide and brain natriuretic peptide in the human placental vasculature.Isolated placental cotyledons were dually perfused with fetal perfusion pressure used as an index of vascular response.

Rinsho byori. The Japanese journal of clinical pathology, 2004
Plasma levels of various neurohumoral factors are activated and have an important role of the pathophysiology of congestive heart failure (CHF). Atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) and brain (or B-type) natriuretic peptide (BNP) are secreted from cardiomyocytes in response to atrial or ventricular wall stretch.

Brain Type Natriuretic Peptide
Neonatal Network, 2008BRAIN TYPE NATRIURETIC PEPTIDE, also called B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP), has emerged as a valuable diagnostic and prognostic marker in the assessment of heart failure in adults.1–7 Serum BNP levels have also been shown to differentiate pulmonary from cardiac causes of dyspnea and to be useful as a screening tool for ventricular hypertrophy ...

Brain Natriuretic Peptide in Term Pregnancy
Reproductive Sciences, 2012To determine the normal range of serum brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) in uncomplicated, singleton term pregnant patients.Serum for analysis of BNP was drawn at admission to labor and delivery (= 104), prior to administration of intravenous fluid.Median BNP was 20 pg/mL, with an interquartile range of 20 pg/mL (range 5-70 pg/mL; or a mean ± standard ...

Brain Natriuretic Peptide in Cardiovascular Diseases
The American Journal of the Medical Sciences, 2008The natriuretic peptides are a family of related hormones that play an important role in the homeostasis of cardiovascular system. Serum levels of brain natriuretic peptide have recently emerged as a marker for the diagnosis, prognosis, follow-up, and therapy of patients with heart failure (HF) and other cardiovascular diseases.
