Effect of low-dose human atrial natriuretic peptide on postoperative atrial fibrillation in patients undergoing pulmonary resection for lung cancer: A double-blind, placebo-controlled study [PDF]

, 2012
ObjectivesWe previously reported that patients with preoperative B-type natriuretic peptide levels of 30 pg/mL or more have increased risk of postoperative atrial fibrillation after pulmonary resection.

Altered density of glomerular binding sites for atrial natriuretic factor in bile duct-ligated rats with ascites [PDF]

, 1991
The renal response to atrial natriuretic factor is blunted in cirrhosis with ascites. This might be due to alterations of renal receptors for atrial natriuretic factor.

Tall Stature and Scoliosis Associated With a Novel Homozygous Loss‐of‐Function Missense Variant in NPR3

American Journal of Medical Genetics Part A, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT NPR3‐related tall stature is characterized by tall stature, elongated big toes, and additional epiphyses in hand and foot bones. The condition is caused by biallelic loss‐of‐function variants affecting natriuretic peptide receptor 3 (NPR3). Five individuals from four different families have been reported.

Doxorubicin Selectively Inhibits Brain versus Atrial Natriuretic Peptide Gene Expression in Cultured Neonatal Rat Myocytes [PDF]

, 1999
Doxorubicin is an antineoplastic agent with significant cardiotoxicity. We examined the effects of this agent on the expression of the natriuretic peptide (NP) genes in cultured neonatal rat atrial myocytes.

Plasma natriuretic peptide levels and the risk of cardiovascular events and death.

New England Journal of Medicine, 2004
BACKGROUND The natriuretic peptides are counterregulatory hormones involved in volume homeostasis and cardiovascular remodeling. The prognostic significance of plasma natriuretic peptide levels in apparently asymptomatic persons has not been established.

The effect of severe renal impairment on the pharmacokinetics, safety and tolerability of balcinrenone

British Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Aims The aim of this phase 1 trial was to assess the pharmacokinetics, safety and tolerability of balcinrenone (previously AZD9977) in participants with severe renal impairment vs. those with normal renal function. Methods Participants with severe renal impairment (estimated glomerular filtration rate [eGFR] < 30 mL/min/1.73 m2) not on dialysis were ...

The Multi-Biomarker Approach for Heart Failure in Patients with Hypertension [PDF]

, 2015
We assessed the predictive ability of selected biomarkers using N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) as the benchmark and tried to establish a multi-biomarker approach to heart failure (HF) in hypertensive patients. In 120 hypertensive

Mammalian Tolerance to Amino Acid Heterochirality

ChemBioChem, EarlyView.
Organisms preferentially use l‐amino acids (l‐AAs). However, de novo synthesized l‐AAs are in part converted to d‐AAs. The ribosome has a robust system to use l‐AAs for protein synthesis, whereas non‐ribosomal synthesis can also use d‐AAs. Furthermore, some AA residues can be post‐translationally isomerized through enzymatic or spontaneous processes ...
