چکیده

Single atrial myocytes were isolated from the bullfrog heart and studied under current and voltage clamp conditions to determine the electrophysiological effects of the C-type natriuretic peptide (CNP). CNP (10(-8) M) significantly shortened the action potential and reduced its peak amplitude after the application of isoproteronol (10(-7) M). In voltage clamp studies, CNP inhibited isoproteronol-stimulated L-type Ca2+ current (ICa) without any significant effect on the inward rectifier K+ current. The effects of cANF (10(-8) M), a selective agonist of the natriuretic peptide C receptor (NPR-C), were very similar to those of CNP. Moreover, HS-142-1, an antagonist of the guanylyl cyclase-linked NPR-A and NPR-B receptors did not alter the inhibitory effect of CNP on ICa. Inclusion of cAMP in the recording pipette to stimulate ICa at a point downstream from adenylyl cyclase increased ICa, but this effect was not inhibited by cANF. These results provide the first demonstration that CNP can inhibit ICa after binding to NPR-C, and suggest that this inhibition involves a decrease in adenylyl cyclase activity, which leads to reduced intracellular levels of cAMP.

Effects of C-type natriuretic peptide on ionic currents in mouse sinoatrial node: a role for the NPR-C receptor.

The effects of C-type natriuretic peptide (CNP) on heart rate and ionic currents were demonstrated by recording the ECG from adult mice and performing voltage-clamp experiments on single sinoatrial (SA) node cells isolated from mouse heart. The selective natriuretic peptide type C receptor (NPR-C) agonist cANF (10(-7) M) significantly decreased heart rate in the presence of isoproterenol (5 x 1...

C-type natriuretic peptide inhibits L-type Ca2+ current in rat magnocellular neurosecretory cells by activating the NPR-C receptor.

Magnocellular neurosecretory cells (MNCs), of the paraventricular and supraoptic nuclei of the hypothalamus, secrete the hormones vasopressin and oxytocin. As a result, they have an essential role in fundamental physiological responses including regulation of blood volume and fluid homeostasis. C-type natriuretic peptide (CNP) is present at high levels in the hypothalamus. Although CNP is known...

Effects of Wild-Type and Mutant Forms of Atrial Natriuretic Peptide on Atrial Electrophysiology and Arrhythmogenesis.

BACKGROUND Atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) is a hormone with numerous beneficial cardiovascular effects. Recently, a mutation in the ANP gene, which results in the generation of a mutant form of ANP (mANP), was identified and shown to cause atrial fibrillation in people. The mechanism(s) through which mANP causes atrial fibrillation is unknown. Our objective was to compare the effects of wild-...
