Atrial Natriuretic Peptide: Regulator of Chronic Arterial Blood Pressure.
نویسندگان
چکیده
Recent findings in atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) transgenic and gene knockout mouse models uncovered a tonic vasodilatory effect of this hormone that contributes to chronic blood pressure homeostasis. With elevated salt intake, ANP-mediated antagonism of the renin-angiotensin system is essential for blood pressure constancy, suggesting that a deficiency in ANP activity may underlie the etiology of sodium-retaining disorders.

Hemodynamic effect of human and sheep atrial extract in anesthetized rats
The structure of atrial natriurtic peptide (ANP) and Brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) are similar and they are also similar in their actions e.g natriuresis and vasodilation. The previous studies have revealed the presence of ANP and BNP in sheep atrial extract, wherease ANP in human atrial. The aim of the present study is to investigate the comparison of hemodynamic effects of these two atrial ...

متن کاملEvaluation 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...
متن کاملPressor effect of blocking atrial natriuretic peptide in nucleus tractus solitarii.
Previous studies have shown that microinjection of atrial natriuretic peptide into the caudal nucleus tractus solitarii produces significant increases in local neuronal firing rate associated with reductions in arterial pressure in anesthetized Wistar rats. Single units excited by microinjection of atrial natriuretic peptide into the caudal nucleus tractus solitarii were also excited by activat...
متن کاملNifedipine enhances the vasodepressor and natriuretic effects of atrial natriuretic peptide.
We examined a possible interaction between the calcium entry blocker nifedipine and atrial natriuretic peptide on blood pressure and natriuresis in anesthetized rabbits. The administration of atrial natriuretic peptide (0.05 micrograms/kg/min) produced a significant decrease in mean arterial pressure. Similar reductions in blood pressure were obtained during the administration of nifedipine (1....
