Atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) plays a pivotal role in modulation of vascular function and it is
also involved in the pathophysiology of several cardiovascular diseases. We provide an …

Background Atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) has vasodilating and diuretic/natriuretic
properties, both of which contribute to lower blood pressure. These effects are mediated by …

Atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) is a cardiac hormone belonging to the family of natriuretic
peptides (NPs). ANP exerts diuretic, natriuretic, and vasodilatory effects that contribute to …

The natriuretic peptide system includes three known peptides: atrial natriuretic peptide
(ANP), brain natriuretic peptide (BNP), and C-type natriuretic peptide (CNP). They contribute …

The atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP), a component of the natriuretic peptide family, was
discovered in 1981 when de Bold and his coworkers observed a natriuretic effect induced by …

Atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) is a cardiac peptide with multiple physiological effects,
including natriuresis, blood pressure regulation, and renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system …

Atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) a powerful vasodilator, and a protein (28-amino acid peptide)
hormone secreted by heart muscle cells. It is released in response to atrial distention …

Atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) is a cardiac hormone with potent diuretic and natriuretic
properties. This hormone mediates a finely tuned control mechanism for the maintenance of …

Atria1 natriuretic peptide (ANP) is a recently discovered hormone secreted primarily by
atria1 myocytes in response to local wall stretch (ie, increased intravascular volume). The …

If one was to design a hormone to protect the heart, it would have a number of features
shown by the cardiac natriuretic peptides atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) and B‐type …
