Synthesis and Biological Evaluation of Hydroxylated Monocarbonyl Curcumin Derivatives as Potential Inducers of Neprilysin Activity

open access: yesBiomedicines, 2021
Background: Alzheimer’s disease (AD) involves impairment of Aβ clearance. Neprilysin (NEP) is the most efficient Aβ peptidase. Enhancement of the activity or expression of NEP may provide a prominent therapeutic strategy against AD.

Neprilysin, obesity and the metabolic syndrome [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Obesity, 2010
Neprilysin (NEP), a zinc metalloendopeptidase, has a role in blood pressure control and lipid metabolism. The present study tested the hypothesis that NEP is associated with insulin resistance and features of the metabolic syndrome (MetS) in a study of 318 healthy human subjects and in murine obesity, and investigated NEP production by adipocytes in ...

Resetting the neurohormonal balance in heart failure (HF). the relevance of the natriuretic peptide (NP) system to the clinical management of patients with HF [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
The natriuretic peptide (NP) system, which includes atrial natriuretic peptide, B-type natriuretic peptide, and C-type natriuretic peptide, has an important role in cardiovascular homeostasis, promoting a number of physiological effects including ...

Intranasal neprilysin rapidly eliminates amyloid-beta plaques, but causes plaque compensations: the explanation why the amyloid-beta cascade may fail?

open access: yesNeural Regeneration Research, 2022
Neurodegenerative brain disorders are a major burden in our society, such as Alzheimer´s disease. In order to repair or prevent such diseases, drugs are designed which enter the brain, but the blood-brain barrier limits their entry and the search for ...

Neprilysin as a Biomarker: Challenges and Opportunities

open access: yesCardiac Failure Review, 2020
Neprilysin (NEP) inhibition is a successful novel therapeutic approach in heart failure with reduced ejection fraction. Assessing individual NEP status might be important for gathering insights into mechanisms of disease and optimising individualised patient care.

Randomized multicentre pilot study of sacubitril/valsartan versus irbesartan in patients with chronic kidney disease: United Kingdom Heart and Renal Protection (HARP)- III—rationale, trial design and baseline data [PDF]

open access: yes, 2016
BACKGROUND: Patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) are at risk of progression to end-stage renal disease and cardiovascular disease. Data from other populations and animal experiments suggest that neprilysin inhibition (which augments the ...

Soluble Neprilysin in the General Population: Clinical Determinants and Its Relationship to Cardiovascular Disease

open access: yesJournal of the American Heart Association: Cardiovascular and Cerebrovascular Disease, 2019
Background Neprilysin is a metalloprotease involved in proteolysis of numerous peptides, including natriuretic peptides, and is of prognostic and therapeutic importance in heart failure with reduced ejection fraction.
