Association of atrial natriuretic peptide and type-A natriuretic peptide receptor gene polimorphisms with left ventricular mass in human essential hypertension. J Am Coll Cardiol 2006; 48 : 499–505.
During the transition at birth to air breathing, regulation of surfactant release from alveolar type II (ATII) cells is critical. Atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) stimulates natriuretic peptide ...
B-type natriuretic peptide is released by cardiac myocytes in response to wall stretch. ... BNP is similar to atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP), however ANP is not as easily measured.
Natriuretic peptides are secreted from the heart as counter regulatory hormones in response to increased intraventricular and atrial pressure and stretch. Assays to measure natriuretic peptide ...
The natriuretic peptides are a family of related hormones that play a crucial role in cardiovascular homeostasis. They have recently emerged as potentially important clinical markers in heart failure.
TOPLINE: Assessing left atrial volume and natriuretic peptides (LA/NP) can identify heart failure with preserved ejection fraction (HFpEF) with an 88% specificity and 97% positive predictive value.
