Patients with heart failure are at higher risk of progression to end‐stage renal disease (ESRD), regardless of ejection fraction (EF). We assessed the renal effects of angiotensin–neprilysin inhibition in a pooled analysis of 13 195 patients with heart ...

Neprilysin, obesity and the metabolic syndrome [PDF]
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]
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 ...

Angiotensin-neprilysin inhibition versus enalapril in heart failure.
BACKGROUND We compared the angiotensin receptor-neprilysin inhibitor LCZ696 with enalapril in patients who had heart failure with a reduced ejection fraction. In previous studies, enalapril improved survival in such patients.

Simple Summary Active BNP-32, less active proBNP-108, and inactive N-terminal proBNP-76 all circulate in the blood. The circulating protease neprilysin has lower substrate specificity for BNP than ANP, while proBNP and N-terminal proBNP are not degraded ...

Neprilysin as a Biomarker: Challenges and Opportunities
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.

Angiotensin-Neprilysin Inhibition in Heart Failure with Preserved Ejection Fraction.
BACKGROUND The angiotensin receptor-neprilysin inhibitor sacubitril-valsartan led to a reduced risk of hospitalization for heart failure or death from cardiovascular causes among patients with heart failure and reduced ejection fraction.

Dementia-related adverse events in PARADIGM-HF and other trials in heart failure with reduced ejection fraction. [PDF]
Aims: Inhibition of neprilysin, an enzyme degrading natriuretic and other vasoactive peptides, is beneficial in heart failure with reduced ejection fraction (HFrEF), as shown in PARADIGM-HF which compared the angiotensin receptor–neprilysin inhibitor (
