Clinical Use of Natriuretic Peptides

open access: yesProceedings of Singapore Healthcare, 2011
Either B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) or NT-proBNP may be used as a diagnostic, screening, prognostic and therapeutic tool for CHF. The Food and Drug Administration (FDA) cleared the cut-off point for BNP at 100 pg/mL, and that of NT-proBNP at 125 pg ...

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.

Progression and prognostic significance of electrocardiographic findings in patients with cardiac amyloidosis

open access: yesESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 809-818, April 2025.
Abstract Aims This study aimed to evaluate the change of the main electrocardiographic (ECG) characteristics and their prognostic role across the main subtypes of cardiac amyloidosis [light‐chain amyloidosis (AL) and hereditary (ATTRv) and wild‐type transthyretin amyloidosis (ATTRwt)].

Evidence for a novel natriuretic peptide receptor that prefers brain natriuretic peptide over atrial natriuretic peptide

open access: yesBiochemical Journal, 2001
Atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) and brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) exert their physiological actions by binding to natriuretic peptide receptor A (NPRA), a receptor guanylate cyclase (rGC) that synthesizes cGMP in response to both ligands. The family of rGCs is rapidly expanding, and it is plausible that there might be additional, as yet undiscovered,

Outpatient treatment of decompensated heart failure: A systematic review and study level meta‐analysis

open access: yesESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 761-769, April 2025.
Abstract Patients with acutely decompensated heart failure (ADHF) are usually admitted to hospital for management. There is growing interest in delivering intravenous (IV) diuretic therapy at home, in the community or at hospital day‐care units; the safety and effectiveness of outpatient‐based management (OPM) for ADHF has not been established.

Role of selenium in the pathophysiology of cardiorenal anaemia syndrome

open access: yesESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 770-780, April 2025.
Abstract Chronic kidney disease (CKD) and cardiovascular disease (CVD) have multiple bidirectional mechanisms, and anaemia is one of the critical factors that are associated with the progression of the two disorders [referred to as cardiorenal anaemia syndrome (CRAS)].

Serum brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) and N-terminal brain natriuretic peptide (NT-proBNP) in heart valve disease

open access: yesSA Heart Journal, 2017
Serum levels of natriuretic peptides (BNP and NT- proBNP) are known to increase in cardiac failure, and aid in the diagnosis and management of such patients.

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

Association of COPD with adverse outcomes in heart failure patients with preserved ejection fraction

open access: yesESC Heart Failure, Volume 12, Issue 2, Page 799-808, April 2025.
Abstract We performed a systematic review and meta‐analysis to detect the impact of chronic obstructive pulmonary disease (COPD) on the prognosis of heart failure patients with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF). We systematically screened eligible literature from three electronic databases, PubMed, EMBASE and Cochrane Library, up to April 2023.

Natriuretic peptides in diagnosis of pulmonary hypertension

open access: yesТерапевтический архив, 2009
Pathogenetic and diagnostic role of natriuretic peptides in different variants of pulmonary hypertension is discussed. Structure, mechanism of action and physiological effects of some natriuretic peptides and their role in diagnosis and monitoring of the
