Atrial natriuretic peptide, brain natriuretic peptide and c‐type natriuretic peptide: effects on testicular microcirculation and immunohistochemical localization [PDF]
International Journal of Andrology, 1997 The effect of local injection of atrial (ANP), brain (BNP) and C‐type (CNP) natriuretic peptides and an ANP antagonist (HS‐142–1) on testicular microcirculation and vasomotion was studied using laser Doppler flowmetry. The natriuretic peptides were also localized immunohistochemically within the testis.ANP, BNP‐32, CNP‐22 and CNP‐53 all caused a dose ...

Regulation of C-type natriuretic peptide expression
Peptides, 2011 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.

Dexamethasone stimulates expression of C-type Natriuretic Peptide in chondrocytes
BMC Musculoskeletal Disorders, 2006 Background Growth of endochondral bones is regulated through the activity of cartilaginous growth plates. Disruption of the physiological patterns of chondrocyte proliferation and differentiation – such as in endocrine disorders or in many different ...

Role of C-type natriuretic peptide in the function of normal human sperm
Asian Journal of Andrology, 2016 C-type natriuretic peptide (CNP) is a newly discovered type of local regulatory factor that mediates its biological effects through the specific, membrane-bound natriuretic peptide receptor-B (NPR-B).

C-type natriuretic peptide: A new cardiac mediator [PDF]
Peptides, 2013 Natriuretic peptides are endogenous hormones released by the heart in response to myocardial stretch and overload. While atrial and brain natriuretic peptides (ANP, BNP) were immediately considered cardiac hormones and their role was well-characterized and defined in predicting risk in cardiovascular disease, evidence indicating the role of C-type ...

Arthritis Care &Research, EarlyView.Systemic sclerosis (SSc) is a rare autoimmune disease defined by immune dysregulation, vasculopathy, and progressive fibrosis of the skin and internal organs. Despite advances in care, major complications such as interstitial lung disease (ILD) and myocardial involvement remain the leading causes of morbidity and mortality.

The role of C-type natriuretic peptide in cardiovascular medicine [PDF]
European Heart Journal, 2001 0195-668X/01/120997+11 $35.00/0 conventional drug therapy, in order to reduce plasma aminoterminal BNP levels, resulted in reduced total cardiovascular events when compared to therapy directed by clinical acumen. Much less is known about C-type natriuretic peptide (CNP) which was first isolated from porcine brain in 1990. It is now known that CNP has a

G3BP1 Succinylation at K413 is Critical for Cardiac Function by Modulating PI3K‐AKT‐mTOR Signal Axis
Advanced Science, EarlyView.Schematic illustrating the impact of G3BP1 succinylation at K413 on cardiac function. In the healthy human heart, G3BP1 succinylation maintains homeostatic mTOR signaling. In patients with dilated cardiomyopathy (DCM) and heart failure (HF), G3BP1 de‐succinylation induces RagA expression and disrupts the binding of the TSC1/2 complex, leading to the ...

JACC: Basic to Translational Science, 2018 Summary: Sinoatrial node (SAN) disease mechanisms are poorly understood, and therapeutic options are limited. Natriuretic peptide(s) (NP) are cardioprotective hormones whose effects can be mediated partly by the NP receptor C (NPR-C). We investigated the
