The effect of syncope on brain natriuretic peptide
Emergency Medicine Journal, 2011Brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) may be a good prognostic marker in syncope. The aim of this study was to establish whether there is any change in BNP in association with an acute presentation.Patients aged ≥60 years admitted following presentation to the emergency department (ED) with syncope were eligible for prospective enrolment.

Brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) is a cardiac hormone with a spectrum of activities quite similar to those of atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP), including diuretic, natriuretic, hypotensive and smooth muscle relaxant activities. These effects are due to the stimulation of guanylate cyclase-linked natriuretic peptide receptors, leading to an increase in ...

The discovery of B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) and n-terminal pro BNP (nt-proBNP) as markers for the diagnosis, severity and prognosis of patients with congestive heart failure has been called a true breakthrough for patients and physicians faced with this disorder. Moreover, the literature on their prognostic value in other clinical conditions like

Brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) is a ventricular hormone with natriuretic, diuretic and vasodilatory actions. Acute infusion of BNP reduces cardiac pre- and after-load in healthy and diseased subjects, but its long-term therapeutic usefulness remains unclear.We prepared a monoclonal antibody specific to mouse BNP, and characterized transgenic mice ...

Brain Natriuretic Peptide and Atrial Natriuretic Peptide Levels in Normal Pregnancy and Preeclampsia
Gynecologic and Obstetric Investigation, 2010Brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) was increased in many hypertensive subjects. In this study, we have evaluated maternal, umbilical plasma and amniotic fluid BNP and atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) in 19 normotensive pregnant women and in 35 preeclamptic patients.
