Receptor selectivity of natriuretic peptide family, atrial natriuretic peptide, brain natriuretic peptide, and C-type natriuretic peptide

Endocrinology, 1992
To elucidate the ligand-receptor relationship of the natriuretic peptide system, which comprises at least three endogenous ligands, atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP), brain natriuretic peptide (BNP), and C-type natriuretic peptide (CNP), and three receptors, the ANP-A receptor or guanylate cyclase-A (GC-A), the ANP-B receptor or guanylate cyclase-B (GC ...

C-type natriuretic peptide and heart failure

Pharmacological Research, 2006
C-type natriuretic peptide (CNP) is a peptide produced by the vascular endothelium with vasodilative properties. It shares structural and physiological properties with the atrial and brain natriuretic peptides (ANP and BNP), whose central role in the pathophysiology of heart failure (CHF) is firmly established.

C-type natriuretic peptide: a selective cardiovascular peptide

American Journal of Physiology-Regulatory, Integrative and Comparative Physiology, 1993
Studies were performed in three groups of anesthetized dogs to compare the structurally related peptides atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) and C-type natriuretic peptide (CNP). Group 1 (n = 5) and group 2 (n = 4) received intravenous infusions of CNP or ANP respectively at doses of 10 ng.kg-1.min-1 and 100 ng.kg-1.min-1.

C‐type natriuretic peptide in prostate cancer

APMIS, 2009
C‐type natriuretic peptide (CNP) is expressed in the male reproductive organs in pigs. To examine whether the human prostate also expresses the CNP gene, we measured CNP and N‐terminal proCNP in prostate cancer tissue extracts and performed immunohistochemical biopsy staining.

C-Type Natriuretic Peptide and Overgrowth

2009
Natriuretic peptides are a family of structurally related peptides with different distinct biological effects. C-type natriuretic peptide (CNP)-mediated signaling is important for endochondral ossification and intervenes in the control of chondrocyte maturation by regulating the balance between proliferation and terminal differentiation. CNP is encoded

Plasma brain natriuretic peptide and C-type natriuretic peptide in essential hypertension

Journal of Hypertension, 1994
To 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, 1993
Natriuretic 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.

Brain Natriuretic Peptide and C‐Type Natriuretic Peptide Maintain Porcine Oocyte Meiotic Arrest

Journal of Cellular Physiology, 2014
Recent studies have shown that C‐type natriuretic peptide (CNP) serves as a key control system during mouse oocyte maturation. We used pig models (in vitro and in vivo) to explore the role played by the natriuretic peptide family in porcine oocyte maturation.

C-type Natriuretic Peptide: An Important Neuroendocrine Regulator?

Trends in Endocrinology & Metabolism, 2000
In the decade since its discovery, C-type natriuretic peptide (CNP), the third member of the natriuretic peptide family, has been shown to be produced by most of the major endocrine glands, including the hypothalamus and anterior pituitary. The relative abundance of its guanylyl cyclase-containing GC-B receptor in these glands suggests that CNP might ...
