Dynamic Changes in Pentraxin-3 and Neprilysin in ST Segment Elevation Myocardial Infarction
Pentraxin-3 (PTX3) and neprilysin have been associated with increased morbidity and mortality in chronic inflammatory disease and heart failure, but these biomarkers have been studied less in patients with ST segment elevation myocardial infarction ...

Potential of valsartan+sacubitril therapy in hypertensive heart disease
The course of hypertension is often complicated by left ventricular hypertrophy (or hypertensive heart disease, HHD). The main “corridor” of natural HHD is development of heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF).

Roles of Natriuretic Peptides and the Significance of Neprilysin in Cardiovascular Diseases
Atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) and brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) activate the guanylyl cyclase A receptor (GC-A), which synthesizes the second messenger cGMP in a wide variety of tissues and cells.
