N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide and cardiorenal outcome in patients with anaemia in chronic kidney disease. [PDF]

ESC Heart Fail
Abstract Aims Blood levels of N‐terminal pro‐brain natriuretic peptide (NT‐proBNP) may be modified by low renal clearance and anaemia. The aim of this study was to investigate the impact of the blood NT‐proBNP level on cardiovascular and renal outcomes in patients with these two manifestations.

Changes in Serum Natriuretic Peptide Levels after Percutaneous Closure of Small to Moderate Ventricular Septal Defects

The Scientific World Journal, 2012
Background. B-type natriuretic peptide has been shown to be a very sensitive and specific marker of heart failure. In this study, we aimed to investigate the effect of percutaneous closure of ventricular septal defects with Amplatzer septal occluders on ...

Physiology and clinical significance of natriuretic hormones

Indian Journal of Endocrinology and Metabolism, 2013
The natriuretic system consists of the atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) and four other similar peptides including the wrongly named brain natriuretic peptide (BNP). Chemically they are small peptide hormones predominantly secreted by the cardiac myocytes

The level of Brain natriuretic Peptide as a Predictor of the Postoperative Period at Operations with Artificial Blood circulation

Acta Biomedica Scientifica, 2019
The level of natriuretic peptide is regarded as a prognostic predictor of postoperative heart failure in modern cardiac surgery, and moreover, this hormone is included in the standards of its early diagnosis around the world.

Molecular Mechanism of Blood Pressure Regulation through the Atrial Natriuretic Peptide

Biology, 2022
Natriuretic peptides, including atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP), brain natriuretic peptide (BNP), and C-type natriuretic peptide (CNP), have cardioprotective effects and regulate blood pressure in mammals.

Inefficient constitutive inhibition of P2X3 receptors by brain natriuretic peptide system contributes to sensitization of trigeminal sensory neurons in a genetic mouse model of familial hemiplegic migraine

Molecular Pain, 2016
Background On trigeminal ganglion neurons, pain-sensing P2X3 receptors are constitutively inhibited by brain natriuretic peptide via its natriuretic peptide receptor-A. This inhibition is associated with increased P2X3 serine phosphorylation and receptor

Serum brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) and N-terminal brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) in heart valve disease

SA Heart Journal, 2017
Serum levels of natriuretic peptides (BNP and NT- proBNP) are known to increase in cardiac failure, and aid in the diagnosis and management of such patients.

Feasibility study of intraoperative pericardial fluid biomarkers and length of stay after cardiac surgeryCentral MessagePerspective

JTCVS Techniques, 2023
Objective: Pericardial fluid biomarkers reflect the physiologic state of the myocardium. Previously, we showed a sustained increase in pericardial fluid biomarkers compared with blood in the 48 hours after cardiac surgery.

Natriuretic peptides and their usefulness in clinical practise

Journal of Education, Health and Sport, 2020
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 ...

Natriuretic peptides are neuroprotective on in vitro models of PD and promote dopaminergic differentiation of hiPSCs-derived neurons via the Wnt/β-catenin signaling

Cell Death Discovery, 2021
Over the last 20 years, the efforts to develop new therapies for Parkinson’s disease (PD) have focused not only on the improvement of symptomatic therapy for motor and non-motor symptoms but also on the discovering of the potential causes of PD, in order
