A new natriuretic peptide in porcine brain

Nature, 1988
Atrial 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 in Term Pregnancy

Reproductive Sciences, 2012
To 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 ...

Detection of oxytocin, atrial natriuretic peptide, and brain natriuretic peptide using novel imprinted polymers produced with amphiphilic monomers

Journal of Peptide Science, 2019
The cystine‐bridged cyclic peptide hormones (CBCPHs) represent signature structural feature as well as unique biological activity. In this study, three CBCPHs have been identified and characterized, namely, oxytocin, atrial natriuretic peptides (ANPs ...

The effect of syncope on brain natriuretic peptide [PDF]

open access: possibleEmergency Medicine Journal, 2011
Brain 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 in Cardiovascular Diseases

The American Journal of the Medical Sciences, 2008
The 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.

Brain Type Natriuretic Peptide

Neonatal Network, 2008
BRAIN 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 ...
