Molecular Implications of natriuretic peptides in the protection from hypertension and target organ damage development [PDF]
The pathogenesis of hypertension, as a multifactorial trait, is complex. High blood pressure levels, in turn, concur with the development of cardiovascular damage.

C-type natriuretic peptide moderates titin-based cardiomyocyte stiffness
Heart failure is often accompanied by titin-dependent myocardial stiffness. Phosphorylation of titin by cGMP-dependent protein kinase I (PKGI) increases cardiomyocyte distensibility.

La alteración de sistemas natriuréticos renales se asocia con el desarrollo de hipertensión arterial y precede en el tiempo a la aparición de daño renal en un modelo de síndrome metabólico [PDF]
Objetivos: El objetivo del trabajo consistió en determinar la existencia de alteraciones en los sistemas natriuréticos del péptido natriurético atrial y dopamina renal en un modelo de síndrome metabólico por sobrecarga de fructosa y asociarlas con ...

The oocyte cumulus complex regulates mouse sperm migration in the oviduct
Oocyte-dependent and cumulus cell-derived transforming growth factor-β promotes natriuretic peptide type C expression in mouse ampullary epithelial cells, which promotes sperm migration into the ampulla for fertilization.

C-type natriuretic peptide and vascular remodeling
Morishige et al. [(1)][1]have reported local adenovirus-mediated transfer of C-type natriuretic peptide (CNP) to porcine coronary arteries, resulting in reduced stenosis of balloon-injured segments. This is an exciting development with obvious therapeutic potential.

Detection of C-type natriuretic peptide (CNP) transcript in the rat heart and immune organs [PDF]
Previous studies suggested the expression of mRNA, coding for CNP, exclusively in the central nervous system. In the present study, using the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) technique instead of the less sensitive Northern blot hybridization, CNP ...

Regulation of C-type natriuretic peptide expression
C-type natriuretic peptide (CNP) is a member of the small family of natriuretic peptides that also includes atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) and brain, or B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP). Unlike them, it performs its major functions in an autocrine or paracrine manner.

Natriuretic peptides and cardiovascular damage in the metabolic syndrome. Molecular mechanisms and clinical implications [PDF]
Natriuretic peptides are endogenous antagonists of vasoconstrictor and salt- and water-retaining systems in the body's defence against blood pressure elevation and plasma volume expansion, through direct vasodilator, diuretic and natriuretic properties ...
