Effect of C-Type Natriuretic Peptide (CNP) on Spermatozoa Maturation in Adult Rat Epididymis

Current Issues in Molecular Biology, 2023
C-type natriuretic peptide (CNP) is highly expressed in male reproductive tissues, such as the epididymis. The aim of this study is to explore the role of CNP in the maturation of rat epididymal spermatozoa.

Investigating the Role of CNP and CNP Aggregates in the Rheological Breakdown of Triglyceride Systems

Crystals
In many food applications, the mechanical properties of fats play a critical role in determining the processing performance of fat-rich products. In fact, fat crystal networks form a particular class of soft materials that exhibit viscoelastic properties.

CNP Promotes Antiarrhythmic Effects via Phosphodiesterase 2 [PDF]

, 2023
Background: Ventricular arrhythmia and sudden cardiac death are the most common lethal complications after myocardial infarction. Antiarrhythmic pharmacotherapy remains a clinical challenge and novel concepts are highly desired.

Exogenous C-type natriuretic peptide restores normal growth and prevents early growth plate closure in its deficient rats. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2018
Signaling by C-type natriuretic peptide (CNP) and its receptor, natriuretic peptide receptor-B, is a pivotal stimulator of endochondral bone growth. We recently developed CNP knockout (KO) rats that exhibit impaired skeletal growth with early growth ...

Induction of hepatic drug-metabolizing enzymes by chlornitrofen (CNP) and cnp- amino in rats and mice

Chemosphere, 1995
The induction of hepatic drug-metabolizing enzymes by chlornitrofen (CNP) and CNP-amino was studied in the liver of male rats and mice. CNP-amino increased the activities of 7-pentoxyresorufin O-depentylase (PROD) and 7-benzyloxyresorufin O-debenzylase (BROD) as CYP2B1-dependent monooxygenase 3.6- and 4.1-fold in rats.

Rats deficient C-type natriuretic peptide suffer from impaired skeletal growth without early death. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2018
We have previously investigated the physiological role of C-type natriuretic peptide (CNP) on endochondral bone growth, mainly with mutant mouse models deficient in CNP, and reported that CNP is indispensable for physiological endochondral bone growth in

A Novel Patient-Tailored, Cumulative Neurotechnology-Based Therapy for Upper-Limb Rehabilitation in Severely Impaired Chronic Stroke Patients: The AVANCER Study Protocol

Frontiers in Neurology, 2022
Effective, patient-tailored rehabilitation to restore upper-limb motor function in severely impaired stroke patients is still missing. If suitably combined and administered in a personalized fashion, neurotechnologies offer a large potential to assist ...

Detection of C-type natriuretic peptide (CNP) transcript in the rat heart and immune organs [PDF]

, 1993
Previous studies suggested the expression of mRNA, coding for CNP, exclusively in the central nervous system. In the present study, using the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) technique instead of the less sensitive Northern blot hybridization, CNP ...

Predictive models for response to non-invasive brain stimulation in stroke: A critical review of opportunities and pitfalls

Brain Stimulation, 2021
Background: Noninvasive brain stimulation has been successfully applied to improve stroke-related impairments in different behavioral domains. Yet, clinical translation is limited by heterogenous outcomes within and across studies.
