Perspectives on C‐Type Natriuretic Peptide in Cardiometabolic Disease [PDF]
Although CNP (C‐type natriuretic peptide) was first identified in brain tissue, its systemic expression and release is mainly located to the endothelial lining of the vasculature.

Physiological and Pathophysiological Effects of C-Type Natriuretic Peptide on the Heart [PDF]
C-type natriuretic peptide (CNP) is the third member of the natriuretic peptide family. Unlike other members, i.e., atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) and brain natriuretic peptide (BNP), which are cardiac hormones secreted from the atrium and ventricle of

C-type natriuretic peptide preserves central neurological function by maintaining blood-brain barrier integrity [PDF]
C-type natriuretic peptide (CNP) is highly expressed in the central nervous system (CNS) and key to neuronal development; however, a broader role for CNP in the CNS remains unclear.

C-type natriuretic peptide (CNP) in the paraventricular nucleus-mediated renal sympatho-inhibition [PDF]
Volume reflex produces sympatho-inhibition that is mediated by the hypothalamic paraventricular nucleus (PVN). However, the mechanisms for the sympatho-inhibitory role of the PVN and the neurochemical factors involved remain to be identified.

C-type natriuretic peptide regulates lipid metabolism through a NPRB-PPAR pathway in the intramuscular and subcutaneous adipocytes in chickens [PDF]
Natriuretic peptides (NPs) have an important role in lipid metabolism in skeletal muscle and adipose tissue in animals. C-type natriuretic peptide (CNP) is an important NP, but the molecular mechanisms that underlie its activity are not completely ...

Endothelial C-type natriuretic peptide/guanylyl cyclase-B signaling prevents pulmonary arterial hypertension [PDF]
C-type natriuretic peptide (CNP) is released from endothelial cells and acts as an autocrine/paracrine mediator, regulating systemic blood pressure and vascular remodeling via guanylyl cyclase-B (GC-B) and natriuretic peptide receptor-C.
