Plasma Atrial Natriuretic Factor and Cyclic GMP in Mitral Stenosis
To study the relation between plasma atrial natriuretic factor (ANF) and cardiac pressures, we measured plasma ANF in 24 patients with mitral stenosis 30 minutes before and 20 minutes after balloon mitral valvulotomy. All patients were without physical signs of congestive heart failure. Normal sinus rhythm was present in 15 (group 1), whereas the other nine (group 2) had permanent atrial fibril...
متن کاملPlasma somatostatin 28 increases in response to feeding in man.
Tissue somatostatin-like immunoreactivity (SLI) consists of a number of molecular species including the cyclic tetradecapeptide or SRIF, an N-terminally extended form of SRIF termed somatostatin-28, as well as larger precursor peptides. The function and nature of circulating SLI is not well understood. In this report, we describe techniques for the definition of the components of plasma SLI in ...
متن کاملResponse of urinary bladder to cholinergic and adrenergic agents.
The pharmacologic response of bladder muscle strip of albino rabbits was studied in vitro. The effect of cholinergic and adrenergic agents and their antagonists were demonstrated with a log dose-response curve. Cholinergic receptors were abundant in detrusor muscle. While the excitory alpha adrenergic receptors existed in bladder neck, the inhibitory beta adrenergic receptors were predominant i...
متن کاملPlatelet Cyclic GMP
Background. The present study was designed to investigate the intracellular production of cyclic GMP (cGMP) in platelets in response to nitroglycerin and to determine the potential clinical value of platelet cGMP as an indicator of the effects of nitroglycerin and nitrate tolerance. Methods and Results. Platelet cGMP levels and the diameters of the coronary arteries before and 2 minutes after i...
متن کاملRole of cyclic GMP in gene regulation.
Cyclic GMP is produced in response to nitric oxide and natriuretic peptides; cGMP is a key regulator of cell proliferation, differentiation, and apoptosis, and plays an important role in many (patho)physiological processes such as synaptic plasticity, angiogenesis, inflammation, and cardiac hypertrophy. The regulation of gene expression by cGMP has been recognized relatively recently, but cGMP-...
