The role of atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) in chronic liver disease.
نویسنده
چکیده
The role of atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) and potential defects of ANP in liver disease are reviewed. Patients with cirrhosis of the liver show no decrease of ANP plasma concentrations nor changes in the pattern of ANP immunoreactivity nor changes of splanchnic ANP clearance. The renal effects of exogenously administered as well as endogenously released ANP are blunted in cirrhosis, in particular in patients with ascites. This seems due to increased activity of sodium-retaining hormonal systems and changes of the renal ANP receptor status. Pharmacological inhibition of ANP-degradation or clearance may yield therapeutic potential.

Background: Myocardial infarction (MI) is the irreversible cell death caused by ischemia in parts of myocardium. Atrial and Brain natriuretic peptides (ANP and BNP) are known as strong markers of myocardial infarction. This study was aimed to evaluate the effect of six weeks low intensity interval training on ANP and BNP genes expression in rats following myocardial infarction. Materials and m...
