CNP, the Third Natriuretic Peptide: Its Biology and Significance to the Cardiovascular System
Biology, 2022 The natriuretic peptide family consists of three biologically active peptides: ANP, BNP, and CNP. CNP is more widely expressed than the other two peptides, with significant levels in the central nervous system, osteochondral system, and vascular system ...

C-type natriuretic peptide moderates titin-based cardiomyocyte stiffness
JCI Insight, 2020 Heart failure is often accompanied by titin-dependent myocardial stiffness. Phosphorylation of titin by cGMP-dependent protein kinase I (PKGI) increases cardiomyocyte distensibility.

Atrial natriuretic peptide, brain natriuretic peptide and c‐type natriuretic peptide: effects on testicular microcirculation and immunohistochemical localization [PDF]
International Journal of Andrology, 1997 The effect of local injection of atrial (ANP), brain (BNP) and C‐type (CNP) natriuretic peptides and an ANP antagonist (HS‐142–1) on testicular microcirculation and vasomotion was studied using laser Doppler flowmetry. The natriuretic peptides were also localized immunohistochemically within the testis.ANP, BNP‐32, CNP‐22 and CNP‐53 all caused a dose ...

Regulation of C-type natriuretic peptide expression
Peptides, 2011 C-type natriuretic peptide (CNP) is a member of the small family of natriuretic peptides that also includes atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) and brain, or B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP). Unlike them, it performs its major functions in an autocrine or paracrine manner.

Role of C-type natriuretic peptide in the function of normal human sperm
Asian Journal of Andrology, 2016 C-type natriuretic peptide (CNP) is a newly discovered type of local regulatory factor that mediates its biological effects through the specific, membrane-bound natriuretic peptide receptor-B (NPR-B).
