Different behaviour of the N-terminal and C-terminal fragment of proatrial natriuretic factor in plasma of healthy subjects as well as of patients with cirrhosis [PDF]

, 1990
N-terminal (atrial natriuretic factor (ANF) 1-98) and C-terminal (ANF 99-126) fragments of proatrial natriuretic factor (NTA and CTA, respectively) were determined in plasma of healthy subjects adopting different postures and in patients with cirrhosis ...

Balloon‐Expandable Versus Self‐Expanding Valves in Bicuspid Aortic Stenosis: Insights From the SWEDEHEART Registry

Catheterization and Cardiovascular Interventions, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Background Transcatheter aortic valve replacement (TAVR) is increasingly used in patients with bicuspid aortic valve (BAV) stenosis, but there is limited comparative data on balloon‐expandable (BEV) versus self‐expanding valves (SEV) in this population. Aim To compare clinical and hemodynamic outcomes between BEVs and SEVs in patients with BAV

Pre-ovulatory LH/hCG surge decreases C-type natriuretic peptide secretion by ovarian granulosa cells to promote meiotic resumption of pre-ovulatory oocytes.

Human Reproduction, 2011
BACKGROUND In mammalian follicles, oocytes are arrested at the diplotene stage of prophase I until meiotic resumption following the LH surge. Recently, C-type natriuretic peptide (CNP), encoded by natriuretic peptide precursor type C (NPPC) was found to ...

C-type natriuretic peptide stimulates chicken myoblast differentiation through NPRB/NPRC receptors and metabolism pathway

Journal of Integrative Agriculture, 2022
Skeletal muscle development is closely related with the amount of meat production and its quality in chickens. Natriuretic peptides (NPs) play an important role in myotube formation and fat oxidation of skeletal muscle in animals.

Pseudomonas aeruginosa Expresses a Functional Human Natriuretic Peptide Receptor Ortholog: Involvement in Biofilm Formation

mBio, 2015
Considerable evidence exists that bacteria detect eukaryotic communication molecules and modify their virulence accordingly. In previous studies, it has been demonstrated that the increasingly antibiotic-resistant pathogen Pseudomonas aeruginosa can ...

Epigenetic Changes Related to Hypertension in Asian Adults: A Systematic Review

Chronic Diseases and Translational Medicine, EarlyView.
PRISMA study flow diagram. ABSTRACT Background Elevated high blood pressure is controlled by complicated, little‐understood genetic and epigenetic pathways that are influenced by both heritable and environmental variables. Many adult systolic and diastolic blood pressure‐related genomic loci have been identified through previous genome‐wide association

Plasma C-Type Natriuretic Peptide as a Predictor for Therapeutic Response to Metoprolol in Children with Postural Tachycardia Syndrome

PLoS ONE, 2015
POTS is a global public-health disease, but predictor for therapeutic response to metoprolol in children with POTS is lacking. This study was designed to investigate predictive value of plasma C-type natriuretic peptide (CNP) in the therapeutic efficacy ...

Low NT-proBNP levels in overweight and obese patients do not rule out a diagnosis of heart failure with preserved ejection fraction [PDF]

, 2018
Background Heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) is a heterogeneous syndrome that presents clinicians with a diagnostic challenge. The use of natriuretic peptides to exclude a diagnosis of HFpEF has been proposed.

Progression and prognostic significance of electrocardiographic findings in patients with cardiac amyloidosis

ESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 809-818, April 2025.
Abstract Aims This study aimed to evaluate the change of the main electrocardiographic (ECG) characteristics and their prognostic role across the main subtypes of cardiac amyloidosis [light‐chain amyloidosis (AL) and hereditary (ATTRv) and wild‐type transthyretin amyloidosis (ATTRwt)].

CLINICAL AND DIAGNOSTIC VALUE OF STUDIES OF ENDOTHELIAL DYSFUNCTION MARKERS IN PATIENTS WITH ISCHEMIC HEART DISEASE

Кубанский научный медицинский вестник, 2014
In this paper we have carried out the diagnosis of the damage of the vascular endothelium in patients with ischemic heart disease (IHD) based on the study of gene of endothelial nitric oxide synthase polymorphism, the condition of vasoregulating function
