Rationale & Objective: Heart failure treatment relies on loop diuretics to induce natriuresis and decongestion, but the therapy is often limited by diuretic resistance.

Sex-Specific Computational Models of Kidney Function in Patients With Diabetes
The kidney plays an essential role in homeostasis, accomplished through the regulation of pH, electrolytes and fluids, by the building blocks of the kidney, the nephrons.

Current Understanding of Pressure Natriuresis
Pressure natriuresis refers to the concept that increased renal perfusion pressure leads to a decrease in tubular reabsorption of sodium and an increased sodium excretion. The set point of blood pressure is the point at which pressure natriuresis and extracellular fluid volume are in equilibrium.

Effects of phenylbutazone, firocoxib, and dipyrone on the diuretic response to furosemide in horses
Background Treatment with phenylbutazone (nonselective COX inhibitor) decreases the diuretic and natriuretic effects of furosemide by nearly 30% but the effects of COX‐2 specific inhibitors (firocoxib) and atypical NSAIDs (dipyrone) are unknown ...

Novel Antihypertension Mechanism of β-Glucan by Corin and ANP-Mediated Natriuresis in Mice
Many of the β-glucans are known to have antihypertensive activities, but, except for angiotensin-converting enzyme II inhibition, the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. Corin is an atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP)-converting enzyme.

γ-Tocotrienol, a vitamin E homolog, is a natriuretic hormone precursor
2,7,8-Trimethyl-2-(β-carboxyethyl)-6-hydroxychroman (γ-CEHC), a metabolite of γ-tocopherol and γ-tocotrienol, was identified as a new endogenous natriuretic factor.

Role of cGMP in natriuresis and pressure-natriuresis [PDF]
Cyclic GMP (cGMP) is synthesized by renal proximal tubule (RPT) cells and is exported from these cells into the renal interstitial (RI) compartment by an organic anion transporter system. We have demonstrated that RI gGMP inhibits renal Na+ reabsorption at the renal tubule.

The Childhood Role in Development of Primary Hypertension. [PDF]
Primary hypertension is not just an adult disorder. Current US population data on children and adolescents demonstrate a prevalence of elevated blood pressure (BP) and hypertension combined of over 10%.

Background and Purpose: European Guidelines recommend early evaluation of diuresis and natriuresis after the first administration of diuretic to identify patients with insufficient diuretic response during acute heart failure.
