B-Type Natriuretic Peptide Modulates Ghrelin, Hunger, and Satiety in Healthy Men
Chronic heart failure is accompanied by anorexia and increased release of B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) from ventricular cardiomyocytes. The pathophysiological mechanisms linking heart failure and appetite regulation remain unknown. In this study, we investigated the impact of intravenous BNP administration on appetite-regulating hormones and subjective ratings of hunger and satiety in 10 he...
متن کاملResponse to Comment on: Vila et al. B-Type Natriuretic Peptide Modulates Ghrelin, Hunger, and Satiety in Healthy Men. Diabetes 2012;61:2592–2596
Vila et al. (1) reported that brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) infusions reduce total and acylated-ghrelin levels while increasing satiety. Since ghrelin acts orexigenic, the authors conclude that BNP might indirectly regulate food intake in conditions associated with excessive BNP levels, such as in heart failure. The hypothesis is provocative but ignores the complex metabolic actions of natriu...
متن کاملB-type natriuretic peptide and arterial stiffness in healthy Japanese men.
BACKGROUND Recent evidence suggests that even a slight increase in the plasma level of B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) may be a marker of cardiovascular risk; however, the mechanisms underlying the association are currently unclear. Because increased arterial stiffness, as reflected by an increase of the pulse wave velocity (PWV) or pulse pressure (PP), may contribute to increasing plasma BNP ...
متن کاملNatriuretic Peptide Type-B Gene
The structure of the mouse natriuretic peptide type-B (BNP) gene was determined by isolating and sequencing genomic clones. The mouse BNP gene was structurally similar to other natriuretic peptide genes and comprised three exons and two introns. Expression of the mouse BNP gene was found only in cardiac tissue as determined by ribonuclease protection analyses. Initiation of transcription was 31...
متن کاملB-type natriuretic peptide and cirrhosis progression.
Brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) is used as a marker of cardiac dysfunction to predict heart failure mortality. The significance of the prognostic ability of BNP for liver cirrhosis remains unknown, although the levels of BNP seen in cirrhosis are high. We aimed to determine whether the BNP level is related to the stage of cirrhosis and could serve as a prognostic marker of cirrhosis (predict th...
