As research continues, there is increasing potential for NPs to be applied to drug development and treatments for CVD, kidney disease, and diabetes.
Several forms of natriuretic peptides exist and some are easier to measure than others. The prohormone forms of NPs undergo many cleavages to generate the biologically active forms of the hormone.
The cleavages result in different fragments of various amino acid lengths. N-terminal NT prohormone fragments of natriuretic peptides are typically more stable, have longer half-lives, and circulate at higher concentrations compared to C-terminal biologically active hormone ends 12, Over the years, it has been found that there are many physiological actions of natriuretic peptides in the body.
Multiple forms of natriuretic peptides circulate throughout the body; however, research has shown that the NT pro-fragments of NPs are better for measuring concentrations. Table of Contents. Introduction Humans have at least 50 discovered hormones managing vital biological functions in the body.
Forms of Natriuretic Peptides Several forms of natriuretic peptides exist and some are easier to measure than others. NT-proANP vs. BNP Conclusion Over the years, it has been found that there are many physiological actions of natriuretic peptides in the body.
References Volpe. Natriuretic peptides and cardio-renal disease. ANP can be thought of as an anti-hypertensive hormone and plays a central role in the regulation of blood pressure.
The biologically-active peptide ANP is release through a series of proteolytic cleavages and in humans is 28 amino acids in length that contains a loop created by a disulfide bond between two cysteines.
Low levels of ANP are synthesized in a variety of other tissues and in certain pathologic states e. The A and B receptors are guanylyl cyclases, binding to which increases intracellular concentration of cyclic GMP as a second messenger.
The C receptor is a clearance receptor that aids in removing ANP from the cirulation, acting in concert with a number of peptidases that destroy ANP. The plasma halflife of ANP is only minutes.

Pharmacology and toxicology of toad venom. A second natriuretic peptide brain-type natriuretic peptide ; BNP is a amino acid peptide that is synthesized largely by the ventricles as well as in the brain where it was first identified.
The cGMP serves as a second messenger for the cellular actions of natriuretic peptides. Neutral endopeptidase NEP; also called neprilysin is a circulating enzyme that degrades natriuretic peptides. Therefore, inhibition of this enzyme e. Natriuretic peptides NPs are involved in the long-term regulation of sodium and water balance, blood volume and arterial pressure. There are two major pathways of natriuretic peptide actions: 1 vasodilator effects, and 2 renal effects that leads to natriuresis and diuresis.
NPs directly dilate veins increase venous compliance and thereby decrease central venous pressure , which reduces cardiac output by decreasing ventricular preload. NPs also dilate arteries, which decreases systemic vascular resistance and systemic arterial pressure.
