Our purpose was to compare the actions of atrial natriuretic peptide and brain natriuretic peptide in the human placental vasculature.Isolated placental cotyledons were dually perfused with fetal perfusion pressure used as an index of vascular response.

Dendroaspis natriuretic peptide binds to the natriuretic peptide clearance receptor
Biochemical and Biophysical Research Communications, 2007Dendroaspis natriuretic peptide (DNP) is a newly-described natriuretic peptide which lowers blood pressure via vasodilation. The natriuretic peptide clearance receptor (NPR-C) removes natriuretic peptides from the circulation, but whether DNP interacts with human NPR-C directly is unknown.

Natriuretic peptides and cGMP signaling control of energy homeostasis.
American Journal of Physiology. Heart and Circulatory Physiology, 2013Since the discovery of natriuretic peptides (NPs) by de Bold et al. in 1981, the cardiovascular community has been well aware that they exert potent effects on vessels, heart remodeling, kidney function, and the regulation of sodium and water balance ...

Current Opinion in Cardiology, 1986
Publisher Summary The natriuretic peptide system consists of three peptides with similar structures. These peptides cause a wide range of actions in the kidney, the vasculature, the heart, and the central nervous system. Atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) has subsequently been the subject of extensive investigation.

Atrial natriuretic peptide in man
American Journal of Nephrology, 1988The heart is the major source of atrial natriuretic peptides (ANP). A propeptide is stored in atrial myocytes. In normal humans, atrial distension secondary to volume overload and/or increased atrial pressures are thought to stimulate the secretion of biologically active alpha-ANP (ANF-[99-126], 28 amino residues) into the circulation.

Natriuretic peptides (ANP, BNP and CNP) comprise a family of structurally related peptides, which are derived from three different genes and which share a 17-amino acid internal ring.

Over the last four decades, cardiac natriuretic peptides have changed our understanding of patients with chronic heart failure. From the discovery of the heart as an endocrine organ with its own hormones and receptors, the biochemistry and physiology of the system have been translated into useful biomarkers and drug targets in cardiovascular disease ...
