چکیده

Atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) gene expression was localized in the rat gastric antrum using immunohistochemistry and in situ hybridization to mucosal cells in the lower portion of the antropyloric glands. Colocalization of immunoreactive ANP, long-acting natriuretic peptide, i.e., proANP-(1-30), and serotonin in these cells identified them to be enterochromaffin cells. Fasting for 72 h in 8-mo-old (adult) rats produced a significant (P < 0.05) decrease in the levels of ANP prohormone mRNA, immunoreactive proANP-(1-30) and ANP to approximately 33% of that of fed rats. Fasting in 1-mo-old rats had no effect on these parameters. Transcripts for natriuretic peptide receptor subtypes NPR-A, NPR-B, and NPR-C were found in both mucosa and muscle tissues of the antrum. ANP, brain natriuretic peptide (BNP), and C-type natriuretic peptide (CNP) stimulated the production of cGMP in antral mucosa in vitro with a potency of ANP > BNP >> CNP, suggesting that these receptors were functional. We conclude that fasting decreases ANP prohormone mRNA and its gene products, long-acting natriuretic peptide, and ANP in the antrum of adult rats.

Effect of six weeks low intensity interval training on expression of atrial and brain natriuretic peptide genes following myocardial infarction in rat

Background: Myocardial infarction (MI) is the irreversible cell death caused by ischemia in parts of myocardium. Atrial and Brain natriuretic peptides (ANP and BNP) are known as strong markers of myocardial infarction. This study was aimed to evaluate the effect of six weeks low intensity interval training on ANP and BNP genes expression in rats following myocardial infarction. Materials and m...

Gastric atrial natriuretic peptide regulates endocrine secretion in antrum and fundus of human and rat stomach.

Atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) is present in gastric mucosa and preferentially binds to two subtypes of natriuretic peptide receptors (NPR), NPR-A and NPR-C. The present study examines the role of endogenous ANP in regulating endocrine secretion in rat and human stomachs. NPR-A protein expression and transcripts were identified in rat antral and fundic mucosa by Western blot and RT-PCR. In su...

Evaluation 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...

Congestive heart failure: increased cardiac and extracardiac atrial natriuretic peptide gene expression.

OBJECTIVES The present investigation was designed to determine if atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) gene expression increases in extracardiac as well as within the heart in congestive heart failure. METHODS Congestive heart failure (CHF) was induced by producing cardiac hypertrophy secondary to an aortocaval fistula in Sprague-Dawley rats. To characterize this model, control and CHF rats had c...

Differential control of somatostatin messenger RNA in rat gastric corpus and antrum. Role of acid, food, and capsaicin-sensitive afferent neurons.

Somatostatin messenger RNA in the antrum and corpus of rat stomach was quantified by Northern and slot blotting using a probe generated by the polymerase chain reaction. Fasting for 48 h enhanced the abundance of somatostatin mRNA in the pyloric antral region, but not in the acid-secreting region of the stomach. In fasted rats, somatostatin mRNA in antrum, but not corpus, was decreased by inhib...
