Taipan Natriuretic Peptides Are Potent and Selective Agonists for the Natriuretic Peptide Receptor A
Cardiovascular ailments are a major cause of mortality where over 1.3 billion people suffer from hypertension leading to heart-disease related deaths. Snake venoms possess a broad repertoire of natriuretic peptides with therapeutic potential for treating hypertension, congestive heart failure, and related cardiovascular disease. We now describe several

AC-NP: a novel chimeric peptide with natriuretic and vasorelaxing actions. [PDF]
The aim of this study was to evaluate the cardiovascular and renal activities of a newly designed natriuretic peptide (NP). Here, we engineered a novel 28-amino acid chimeric peptide, termed AC-NP that combined the 17-amino acid ring of C type ...

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.

Clinical characteristics and concordance of anti‐MDA5 autoantibodies: A multicentre Australian study
Objectives In Australia, anti‐MDA5 antibodies are exclusively tested by line immunoblot assay (LIA). The clinical concordance of a LIA‐positive anti‐MDA5 result is unclear. We aimed to describe the clinical features and determine the clinical concordance of patients with anti‐MDA5 antibodies.
