Elevated plasma C-type natriuretic peptide concentrations in patients with chronic renal failure.

1. C-type natriuretic peptide is a neuropeptide, which is also produced by the vascular endothelial cells. Plasma immunoreactive C-type natriuretic peptide concentrations in patients with various diseases have not yet been studied. 2. Plasma immunoreactive C-type natriuretic peptide concentrations were studied by radioimmunoassay in normal subjects, patients with congestive heart failure, non-d...

Angiotensin II, but not aldosterone and renin, correlates positively with increased concentrations of N-terminal pro-brain natriuretic peptide in patients with chronic heart failure.

A ctivation of the renin–angiotensin–aldosterone system (RAAS) has a central role in the pathophysiology of congestive cardiac failure. Increased concentrations of RAAS neurohormones are associated with worse outcomes in patients with heart failure. Blockade of this system with angiotensin converting enzyme (ACE) inhibitors, b blockers, and spironolactone is a cornerstone of treatment. Congesti...

Renal effects of brain natriuretic peptide in patients with congestive heart failure.

The effect of a continuous infusion of human brain natriuretic peptide, 2 pmol.min-1.kg-1, during 60 min was studied in nine patients with congestive heart failure and in 10 healthy control subjects. Brain natriuretic peptide increased from 1.6 to 101 pmol/l in control subjects and from 25 to 173 pmol/l in congestive heart failure during infusion. Urinary sodium excretion increased significantl...

Evaluation 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...

Natriuretic peptide system in human heart failure.

BACKGROUND Atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP), brain natriuretic peptide (BNP), and C-type natriuretic peptide (CNP) are a family of structurally related peptides that participate in the integrated control of renal and cardiovascular function. Previous studies suggest a functional role for these hormonal peptides in cardiorenal regulation in congestive heart failure (CHF). METHODS AND RESULTS T...
