Antihyperglycemic agents as novel natriuretic therapies in diabetic kidney disease [PDF]
While sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 (SGLT2) inhibitors have been used for the routine management of type 2 diabetes for several years, it is perhaps their natriuretic effects that are most important clinically. This natriuresis activates tubuloglomerular feedback, resulting in reduced glomerular hypertension and proteinuria, leading to renal ...

Impact of DPP-4 inhibitors on plasma levels of BNP and NT-pro-BNP in type 2 diabetes mellitus
Background Dipeptidyl peptidase-4 inhibitors (DPP-4i) decrease glucose levels by regulating incretin peptides in type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM). This study aimed to determine the modulatory effect of DPP-4i on brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) and N ...

Sodium channel blockers are vasodilator as well as natriuretic and diuretic agents. [PDF]
Amiloride (100-400 micrograms) injected intra-arterially into the dog forelimb perfused at constant flow produced a prompt but transient dose-dependent decrease in perfusion pressure. Intravenous injection lowered systemic arterial pressure, but effects were small and transient except in doses exceeding 10 mg.
