The aim of the present study was to examine the effects of atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) on
the responses to coronary artery occlusion. In chloralose-urethane anaesthetised mongrel …

The natriuretic, diuretic, and hypotensive effects of atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) were
examined in rats 4 wk after myocardial infarction induced by left coronary artery ligation …

Myocardial infarction and heart failure are associated with an elevation in plasma levels of
atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP). The early stages of myocardial ischaemia and infarction are …

The effects of atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) on proximal epicardial coronary artery
dimensions and coronary blood flow were examined in 7 awake dogs chronically …

The coronary vascular effect of atrial natriuretic peptide is controversial: Coronary
vasodilator as well as constrictor effects have been reported. The controversy may originate …

Plasma atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP), a hormone secreted by the heart, is elevated in
cardiac failure. In the aim to study the role of ANP in cardiac failure, the haemodynamic …

Atrial natriuretic peptides (ANP) reduce blood pressure. Animal experiments suggest that
this depressor action results from a reduction in cardiac output rather than peripheral …

Studies were performed in isolated, Langendorff-perfused rat hearts and anesthetized dogs
to determine the effects of synthetic atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP 8-33) on the coronary …

Atriopeptin II has been reported to cause profound coronary vasoconstriction in the isolated
perfused guinea pig heart and in the blood perfused canine heart. Consequently, this study …

We studied the hemodynamic changes produced in conscious, chronically instrumented
rabbits during steady-state administration of atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP). We …
