Atrial natriuretic factor plays a significant role in body fluid homeostasis.
Atrial natriuretic factor (ANF) is a hormone with the physiological characteristics of a regulator of body fluid volume. It is potent, has a short duration of action, and responds to a physiologically relevant stimulus in a negative feedback-controlled system. It can act directly or indirectly (via inhibition of aldosterone biosynthesis) on the kidney to alter sodium transport and may regulate ...

متن کاملCerebrospinal fluid atrial natriuretic factor in intracranial disease.
We tested the hypothesis that the concentration of atrial natriuretic factor in the cerebrospinal fluid is an indicator of brain injury in patients with intracranial disease. Atrial natriuretic factor concentration was measured in 72 samples of cerebrospinal fluid from 28 patients with intraventricular drains and in nine samples from outpatient controls undergoing diagnostic lumbar puncture. Le...
متن کاملGeorge E. Brown memorial lecture. Role of atrial peptides in body fluid homeostasis.
Extracts of mammalian atria, but not ventricles, induce marked diuresis, natriuresis, and reduction in blood pressure when infused systemically in rats and dogs. These extracts also inhibit aldosterone biosynthesis and renal renin release. Natriuretic peptides, 21 amino acids and longer, have been isolated from atria of rodents and man, and share a nearly homologous amino acid sequence at the c...
متن کاملAtrial natriuretic factor.
A short and up-to-date review on the great advances made in the field of the atrial natriuretic factor (ANF) is presented. All the short active peptides (up to 33 AA) isolated after purification of atrial homogenates have the same core of 23 amino acids (Ser 103-ARG 125). The ANF liberated in the medium of cultures of rat atrial cardiocytes is the 26 amino acid Arg 101-Tyr 126. Cloning of the c...
