C-type natriuretic peptide upregulates vascular endothelin type B receptors.
Cultured rat vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) possess receptors for potent vasoconstrictor endothelin-1 (ET-1) as well as potent vasodilator natriuretic peptides (atrial, brain, and C-type natriuretic peptides [ANP, BNP, and CNP, respectively]). However, little is known about molecular interactions between endothelin receptors and natriuretic peptides in VSMCs. To elucidate whether natriure...
متن کاملCharacterization of natriuretic peptide receptors in cultured cells.
To elucidate physiological and clinical implications of the natriuretic peptide family, the expression of receptors for natriuretic peptides has been examined in cultured cells (a rat pheochromocytoma cell line [PC12], bovine endothelial cells, rat aortic smooth muscle cells, human mesangial cells, and a porcine kidney epithelial cell line [LLC-PK1]) by Northern blot analysis and cyclic GMP pro...
متن کاملHuman C-type natriuretic peptide. Characterization of the gene and peptide.
We isolated the human C-type natriuretic peptide gene and identified the peptide in the brain. The human C-type natriuretic peptide gene appeared to be composed of at least two exons and one intron. In the 5'-flanking region, there is an array of cis elements (an inverted CCAAT box, two GC boxes, and a cyclic AMP response element-like sequence) that is not present in upstream sequences of the a...

متن کاملAtrial natriuretic factor and C-type natriuretic peptide induce retraction of human thyrocytes in monolayer culture via guanylyl cyclase receptors.
The natriuretic peptides signal through three receptor subtypes, of which two (NPR-A and NPR-B) are membrane-bound guanylyl cyclases for which the principal ligands are respectively atrial natriuretic factor (ANF) and C-type natriuretic peptide (CNP). In the human thyroid cell, a third receptor, NPR-C, has been implicated in the regulation of thyroglobulin, but functional roles for NPR-A and NP...
