Advances in the Mechanism of Action of Natriuretic Peptides at a Cellular Level
... As well as being involved in vasodilatation, ANP also conducts vasoconstriction in specialised parts of the body; as experiments on rat kidney show [36]. In this experiment, it was proved that in a rat kidney, ANP ...

Cardiac natriuretic peptides in plasma increase after dietary induced weight loss in obesity
... We evaluated predictors of change in NT-proBNP, MR- proANP and MR-proADM concentrations using DEXA scanning to measure fat and muscle mass. Our results suggest that loss of body fat is associated with an increase in ...
