Brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) exerts its functions through NP receptors. Recently, BNP has been shown to be involved in a wide range of functions. Previous studies reported BNP expression in the sensory afferent fibers in the dorsal horn (DH) of the spinal cord. However, BNP expression and function in the neurons of the central nervous system are still controversial. Therefore, in this study,...
Natriuretic peptides such as B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) are important cardioprotective hormones with essential functions in sodium excretion, water balance and blood pressure regulation. Consequently, the catabolism of these peptides is in the focus of clinical research. In previous studies, we demonstrated that BNP, in contrast to the structurally related atrial and C-type natriuretic pe...
Brain natriuretic peptide is removed by continuous veno-venous hemofiltration in pediatric patients.
We wanted to evaluate if brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) is cleared during continuous veno-venous hemofiltration (CVVH) sessions in children with congenital heart disease. A prospective observational single-center study was conducted in a post-cardiac surgery intensive care unit of the city children's hospital. Ten children requiring CVVH for acute kidney injury following cardiac surgery were e...
AIMS To find the optimal time to evaluate plasma B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP), which is related to post-myocardial infarction remodelling (PMIR), we measured serial plasma BNP levels according to time protocols after primary percutaneous coronary intervention (PCI). BACKGROUND It has been established that plasma BNP levels can predict the development of PMIR in patients with ST-elevation ...
To the Editor: We read the paper by Kucher et al,1 which demonstrated the association between high levels of pro-brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) and increased risk of adverse clinical outcome (death, resuscitation, mechanical ventilation, pressors, thrombolysis, catheter fragmentation, and surgical embolectomy) in patients with acute pulmonary embolism. The authors concluded that patients with ...

BACKGROUND Protease neprilysin is known to be responsible for the degradation of natriuretic peptides. A recent heart failure (HF) drug, LCZ696 (Entresto(TM)), that combines a neprilysin inhibitor and an angiotensin II receptor inhibitor was suggested to augment circulating B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) concentrations, making the results of BNP measurements diagnostically ambiguous. Because ...
BNP (B-type natriuretic peptide) and anaemia are both associated with adverse outcome in patients with chronic heart failure. Whether low haemoglobin levels are independently predictive of elevated BNP levels in subjects without heart failure is unknown. In the present study, we examined the relationship between haemoglobin and BNP levels in 234 patients with suspected coronary heart disease wi...
We examined the effects of aging and hypertensive left ventricular hypertrophy on the plasma level of brain natriuretic peptide (BNP), and assessed BNP as a risk marker for incident hypertensive cardiovascular events. One hundred and eighty-five hypertensive patients were echocardiographically divided into a hypertensive group with normal left ventricular mass (n=96; age range, 37-86 years; lef...
The measurements of B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) or N-terminal proBNP (NT-proBNP), when taken together with conventional clinical assessment, may assist in making the prognosis and also for making serial adjustment of such treatment. But although such commercial assays are currently approved for the diagnosis of heart failure, the role of the natriuretic peptides for monitoring the success ...
