Spironolactone Attenuates Experimental Uremic Cardiomyopathy by Antagonizing Marinobufagenin
Spironolactone has been noted to attenuate cardiac fibrosis. We have observed that the cardiotonic steroid marinobufagenin plays an important role in the diastolic dysfunction and cardiac fibrosis seen with experimental renal failure.

The role of Angiotensin converting Enzyme 2 and Marinobufagenin in Leptin induced Hypertension and Proteinuria during Pregnancy in Sprague Dawley Rats / Maryam Jameelah Md Hassan [PDF]
Leptin administration to pregnant rats increases systolic blood pressure (SBP), urinary protein excretion and markers of endothelial activation. Although the precise mechanism for this remains unclear, marinobufagenin (MBG) has been implicated in some ...

Large artery stiffness is associated with marinobufagenin in young adults: the African-PREDICT study
Objectives: The cardiotonic steroid, marinobufagenin (MBG), has been shown to play a physiological natriuretic role in response to salt intake. However, recent studies in clinical and animal models demonstrated possible links between elevated levels of ...

Reduction of Na/K-ATPase Potentiates Marinobufagenin-induced Cardiac Dysfunction and Myocyte Apoptosis [PDF]
Decreases in cardiac Na/K-ATPase have been documented in patients with heart failure. Reduction of Na/K-ATPase alpha 1 also contributes to the deficiency in cardiac contractility in animal models.

Marinobufagenin : a new diagnosis target for preeclampsia syndrome?
The bufadienolides, belonging to the cardiac glycosides class are present in humans as well as in some plants and animals. But the major source for these compounds is located in the parotid and skin gland secretions of some toad species, notably Bufo ...

Analytical aspects of marinobufagenin and its applications in the diagnosis of preeclampsia [PDF]
Introduction Marinobufagenin (MBG), a bufadienolide cardiac inotrope, enjoys a growing interest in the early diagnosis of volume expansion-mediated hypertensive states such as preeclampsia (PE).
