Atrial natriuretic peptide is involved in renal actions of moxonidine.
Moxonidine, an antihypertensive imidazoline compound, reduces blood pressure by selective activation of central imidazoline I(1)-receptors and inhibition of sympathetic nerve activity and by direct actions on the kidney, with both mechanisms resulting in diuresis and natriuresis. We hypothesized that the hypotensive and renal actions of moxonidine may be mediated by atrial natriuretic peptide (...
متن کاملDeterminants of renal actions of atrial natriuretic peptide. Lack of effect of atrial natriuretic peptide on pressure-induced vasoconstriction.
We have previously demonstrated that atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) completely reverses norepinephrine-induced afferent arteriolar (AA) vasoconstriction. In the present study we characterized the effects of ANP on pressure-induced vasoconstriction of AA. Chronic unilateral hydronephrosis was induced to facilitate direct visualization of the renal microcirculation. Hydronephrotic kidneys were ...
متن کاملEvaluation of Serum Levels of N-terminal Pro Brain Natriuretic Peptide and Atrial Natriuretic Peptide in Neonates with Respiratory Distress
Background: Acute respiratory distress (ARD) is a critical respiratory failure due to lung injury of neonates leading to the clinical appearance of poor lung compliance. The aimed of the study was to evaluate the diagnostic values in differentiating respiratory from heart diseases with using of N-terminal pro brain natriuretic peptide (NT-pro BNP) and Atrial natriuretic peptide(ANP) in neonates...
متن کاملRenal actions of synthetic dendroaspis natriuretic peptide.
BACKGROUND Dendroaspis natriuretic peptide (DNP), recently isolated from the venom of the green Mamba snake Dendroaspis angusticeps, is a 38 amino acid peptide containing a 17 amino acid disulfide ring structure similar to that of atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP), brain natriuretic peptide (BNP), and C-type natriuretic peptide (CNP). DNP-like immunoreactivity (DNP-LI) was reported to be present...
