NPR2 is involved in FSH-mediated mouse oocyte meiotic resumption [PDF]
Previous studies have reported that follicle-stimulating hormone (FSH) is often added to culture media to induce oocyte meiotic resumption and maturation and to improve subsequent embryonic development during in vitro maturation (IVM). However, the underlying mechanisms remain unclear.Cumulus-oocyte complexes (COCs) were collected from ovaries 46-48 h ...

An overgrowth disorder associated with excessive production of cGMP due to a gain-of-function mutation of the natriuretic peptide receptor 2 gene. [PDF]
We describe a three-generation family with tall stature, scoliosis and macrodactyly of the great toes and a heterozygous p.Val883Met mutation in Npr2, the gene that encodes the CNP receptor NPR2 (natriuretic peptide receptor 2). When expressed in HEK293A

NPR2 Variants Are Frequent among Children with Familiar Short Stature and Respond Well to Growth Hormone Therapy [PDF]
Abstract Context The C-type natriuretic peptide receptor encoded by the NPR2 gene is a paracrine regulator of the growth plate; heterozygous NPR2 variants cause short stature with possible presence of different signs of bone dysplasia.

Phosphatase inhibition by LB-100 enhances BMN-111 stimulation of bone growth
Activating mutations in fibroblast growth factor receptor 3 (FGFR3) and inactivating mutations in the natriuretic peptide receptor 2 (NPR2) guanylyl cyclase both result in decreased production of cyclic GMP in chondrocytes and severe short stature ...

Short Stature is Progressive in Patients with Heterozygous NPR2 Mutations
Abstract Background NPR2 encodes atrial natriuretic peptide receptor B (ANPRB), a regulator of skeletal growth. Biallelic loss-of-function mutations in NPR2 result in acromesomelic dysplasia Maroteaux type (AMDM; OMIM 602875), while heterozygous mutations may account for 2% to 6% of idiopathic short ...

Funktionen der partikulären Guanylatzyklase NPR2 in der Schmerzverarbeitung [PDF]
Viele Studien konnten nachweisen, dass die Produktion von cGMP eine entscheidende Funktion im nozizeptiven System einnimmt. Hierbei wurde vor allem die cGMP-Produktion über lösliche Guanylatzyklasen untersucht. Welche Rolle die partikulären Guanlyatzyklasen bei der Entstehung von Schmerzen haben ist weitgehend ungeklärt.

Homologous and heterologous desensitization of guanylyl cyclase-B signaling in GH3 somatolactotropes [PDF]
The guanylyl cyclases, GC-A and GC-B, are selective receptors for atrial and C-type natriuretic peptides (ANP and CNP, respectively). In the anterior pituitary, CNP and GC-B are major regulators of cGMP production in gonadotropes and yet mouse models of ...
