Brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) is a cardiac hormone with a spectrum of activities quite similar to those of atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP), including diuretic, natriuretic, hypotensive and smooth muscle relaxant activities. These effects are due to the stimulation of guanylate cyclase-linked natriuretic peptide receptors, leading to an increase in ...

To evaluate new development in the utility of brain natriuretic peptide and N-Terminal brain natriuretic peptide (BNP/NT-Pro-BNP) in the management of various cardiovascular diseases. The determination of plasma BNP levels has an established role in the discrimination of pulmonary oedema from other causes of acute dyspnoea, and there is increasing ...

Brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) is a ventricular hormone with natriuretic, diuretic and vasodilatory actions. Acute infusion of BNP reduces cardiac pre- and after-load in healthy and diseased subjects, but its long-term therapeutic usefulness remains unclear.We prepared a monoclonal antibody specific to mouse BNP, and characterized transgenic mice ...

Plasma brain natriuretic peptide and C-type natriuretic peptide in essential hypertension
Journal of Hypertension, 1994To study the relationship between hypertension and the plasma levels of brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) and C-type natriuretic peptide (CNP), and to determine whether the plasma levels of BNP and CNP are correlated.A cross-sectional study of the plasma levels of BNP and CNP in hypertensive patients and normotensive controls matched for age and sex was ...

C-type natriuretic peptide and atrial natriuretic peptide receptors of rat brain
American Journal of Physiology-Regulatory, Integrative and Comparative Physiology, 1993Natriuretic peptide receptors in rat brain were mapped by in vitro autoradiography using 125I-labeled [Tyr0]CNP-(1-22) to bind atrial natriuretic peptide receptor (ANPR)-B and ANPR-C receptors selectively, and 125I-labeled alpha-ANP to select ANPR-A and ANPR-C receptors.
