Blood pressure effects of SGLT2 inhibitors and GLP‐1 receptor agonists: Mechanisms, trial evidence and Real‐world data

open access: yesBritish Journal of Clinical Pharmacology, EarlyView.
SGLT2 inhibitors and GLP‐1 receptor agonists modestly lower blood pressure across diverse patient populations, including those without diabetes. These effects appear largely independent of glycaemic control and offer additive value in high‐risk patients with overlapping comorbidities.

Mortality Prediction Using Modern Peptide Biomarkers in Hemodialysis Patients - A Comparative Analysis

open access: yesKidney & Blood Pressure Research, 2014
Background/Aims: Determination of peptide biomarkers such as troponins, natriuretic peptides or the recently reported FGF23 can be useful to identify hemodialysis patients with a high risk of mortality.

Marine silicon for biomedical sustainability

open access: yesBMEMat, EarlyView.
Schematic illustrating marine silicon for biomedical engineering. Abstract Despite momentous divergence from oceanic origin, human beings and marine organisms exhibit elemental homology through silicon utilization. Notably, silicon serves as a critical constituent in multiple biomedical processes.

Natriuretic hormones in brain function

open access: yesFrontiers in Endocrinology, 2014
Natriuretic hormones include three groups of compounds: the natriuretic peptides (ANP, BNP and CNP), the gastrointestinal peptides (guanylin and uroguanylin), and endogenous cardiac steroids.

C2238/αANP modulates apolipoprotein E through Egr-1/miR199a in vascular smooth muscle cells in vitro [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Subjects carrying the T2238C ANP gene variant have a higher risk to suffer a stroke or myocardial infarction. The mechanisms through which T2238C/αANP exerts detrimental vascular effects need to be fully clarified.

A novel designer natriuretic peptide integrating human C‐type natriuretic peptide, atrial natriuretic peptide, and B‐type natriuretic peptide

open access: yesThe FASEB Journal, 2009
Background The 17‐amino‐acid (AA) ring of C‐type natriuretic peptide (CNP) is essential for activation of NP receptor (NPR)‐B and the 2 nd messenger cGMP. CNP induces minimal hypotension as NPR‐B is more abundantly found in veins

Effects of ovariectomy on the secretory apparatus in the right atrial cardiomyocytes of middle-aged mice

open access: yesClinics, 2014
OBJECTIVE : The aim of the present study was to evaluate the effects of ovariectomy on the secretory apparatus of natriuretic peptides in right atrial cardiomyocytes. METHODS: Nine-month-old mice underwent bilateral ovariectomy or sham surgery.

Brain natriuretic peptide and NT-proBNP levels reflect pulmonary artery systolic pressure in trekkers at high altitude. [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Our objective was to evaluate the utility of the natriuretic peptides BNP (brain natriuretic peptide) and NT-proBNP as markers of pulmonary artery systolic pressure (PASP) in trekkers ascending to high altitude (HA). 20 participants had BNP and NT-proBNP
