C-Type Natriuretic Peptides in Coronary Disease [PDF]

open access: yesClinical Chemistry, 2017
Abstract AIMS C-type natriuretic peptide (CNP) is a paracrine growth factor expressed in the vascular endothelium. Although upregulated in atheromatous arteries, the predictive value of plasma CNP products for outcome in coronary disease is unknown.

CNP, the Third Natriuretic Peptide: Its Biology and Significance to the Cardiovascular System

open access: yesBiology, 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 ...

Natriuretic peptide receptors on rat thymocytes: Inhibition of proliferation by atrial natriuretic peptide. [PDF]

open access: yes, 1996
Because the thymus expresses the natriuretic peptides (NP) as well as their respective receptors, an involvement of NP in the physiology of this organ has been suggested.

The T2238C human atrial natriuretic peptide molecular variant and the risk of cardiovascular diseases [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) is a cardiac hormone which plays important functions to maintain cardio-renal homeostasis. The peptide structure is highly conserved among species. However, a few gene variants are known to fall within the human ANP gene.
