Ularitide is a 32-amino acid peptide derived from (95-126 residues) of ANP PROHORMONE (1-126 residues). It isn't biologically inactivated by a peptidase from dog kidney cortex membranes.
Atrial Natriuretic Peptide (ANP) has the sequence of H-Ser-Leu-Arg-Arg-Ser-Ser-Cys-Phe-Gly-Gly-Arg-OH, is a 28 amino acid peptide. ANP is a powerful vasodilator, and a protein (polypeptide) hormone secreted by heart muscle cells. It is involved in the hom
AP 811, a selective antagonist of the atrial natriuretic peptide clearance receptor (APN-CR, NPR3) with a K i value of 0.48 nM, exhibits remarkable selectivity for NPR3 over NPR1 by more than 20,000-fold. Moreover, AP 811 effectively eliminates ANP-induced pump stimulation.
Vasonatrin peptide (VNP) is a chimera of atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) and C-type natriuretic peptide (CNP) with potent venodilating and natriuretic activity.
SCH-42354 is a potent, orally active inhibitor of neutral endopeptidase (NEP), serving as the active form of the prodrug SCH-42495. By inhibiting NEP hydrolysis, SCH-42354 enhances the activity of atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) and prevents the hydrolysis of leu-enkephalin and ANF with IC50 values of 8.3 nM and 10.0 nM, respectively. Furthermore, SCH-42354 exhibits antihypertensive activity [1] [2].
A-71915 (TFA) is a selective inhibitor of ANP receptor (atrial natriuretic peptide-receptor), induces apoptosis and decreases insulin secretion in RINm5F pancreatic β-cells.
CNP, a member of the natriuretic peptide family, was first identified in porcine brain and later found in other mammals as well as non-mammals. Processing of the CNP precursor gives rise to CNP-22 and its N-terminally elongated form, CNP-53. The CNPs shar
