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 ...

Natriuretic peptides: Diagnostic and therapeutic use
Indian Journal of Endocrinology and Metabolism, 2011 Natriuretic peptides (NPs) are hormones which are mainly secreted from heart and have important natriuretic and kaliuretic properties. There are four different groups NPs identified till date [atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP), B-type natriuretic peptide (

Journal of the American College of Cardiology, 2007 Natriuretic peptides (NPs) are released from the heart in response to pressure and volume overload. B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) and N-terminal-proBNP have become important diagnostic tools for assessing patients who present acutely with dyspnea. The NP level reflects a compilation of systolic and diastolic function as well as right ventricular and

Designer Natriuretic Peptides [PDF]
Journal of Investigative Medicine, 2009 Designer natriuretic peptides (NPs) are novel hybrid peptides that are engineered from the native NPs through addition, deletion, or substitution of amino acid(s) with a goal toward optimization of pharmacological actions while minimizing undesirable effects.

Potential applications of natriuretic peptide system in cardiovascular regenerative medicine [PDF]
CellR4, 2022 Cardiovascular diseases are among the major causes of death worldwide. These diseases can be described as circumstances in which cell loss and injury exceed the capacity for regeneration and repair.

The Effect of Losartan on Plasma Atrial Natriuretic Peptide Levels in the Diabetic Rat Model
Endocrinology Research and Practice, 2022 In creased plasma atrial natriuretic peptide levels accompany the expansion of effective plasma volume in diabetic patients. Atrial natriuretic peptide has a deleterious effect on the pathogenesis of diabetic nephropathy by increasing renal plasma flow ...
