Natriuretic peptides and nitric oxide play important roles in cardiovascular and renal physiology and disease. The natriuretic peptides - atrial natriuretic peptide, brain natriuretic peptide, and C-type natriuretic peptide - comprise a family of proteins that participate in the integrated control of intravascular volume and arterial blood pressure. The natriuretic peptides differentially bind distinct...
Objective: Recent evidence suggests a possible role for nitric oxide (NO) in atrial natriuretic peptide-induced blood pressure effects. We tested the hypothesis that C-type natriuretic peptide (CNP)-mediated relaxation of the rat coronary circulation involves NO and activation of soluble guanylyl cyclase. Methods: Rat hearts (n=6 per group) were perfused in vitro at constant flow and the effect of...
