Ogawa H, Kodama M. Structural insight into hormone recognition by the natriuretic peptide receptor-A. FEBS J 2024.

Abstract
Atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) plays a central role in the regulation of blood pressure and volume. ANP activities are mediated by natriuretic peptide receptor-A (NPR-A), a single-pass transmembrane receptor harboring intrinsic guanylate cyclase activity. This study investigated the mechanism underlying NPR-A-dependent hormone recognition through the determination of the crystal structures of the NPR-A extracellular hormone-binding domain complexed with full-length ANP, truncated mutants of ANP, and dendroaspis natriuretic peptide (DNP) isolated from the venom of the green Mamba snake, Dendroaspis angusticeps. The bound peptides possessed pseudo-two-fold symmetry, despite the lack of two-fold symmetry in the primary sequences, which enabled the tight coupling of the peptide to the receptor, and evidently contributes to guanylyl cyclase activity. The binding of DNP to the NPR-A was essentially identical to that of ANP; however, the affinity of DNP for NPR-A was higher than that of ANP owing to the additional interactions between distinctive sequences in the DNP and NPR-A. Consequently, our findings provide valuable insights that can be applied to the development of novel agonists for the treatment of various human diseases.

Abstract
Cardiovascular ailments are a major cause of mortality where over 1.3 billion people suffer from hypertension leading to heart-disease related deaths. Snake venoms possess a broad repertoire of natriuretic peptides with therapeutic potential for treating hypertension, congestive heart failure, and related cardiovascular disease. We now describe several taipan (Oxyuranus microlepidotus) natriuretic peptides TNPa-e which stimulated cGMP production through the natriuretic peptide receptor A (NPR-A) with higher potencies for the rat NPR-A (rNPR-A) over human NPR-A (hNPR-A). TNPc and TNPd were the most potent, demonstrating 100- and 560-fold selectivity for rNPR-A over hNPR-A. In vivo studies found that TNPc decreased diastolic and systolic blood pressure (BP) and increased heart rate (HR) in conscious normotensive rabbits, to a level that was similar to that of human atrial natriuretic peptide (hANP). TNPc also enhanced the bradycardia due to cardiac afferent stimulation (Bezold-Jarisch reflex). This indicated that TNPc possesses the ability to lower blood pressure and facilitate cardiac vagal afferent reflexes but unlike hANP does not produce tachycardia. The 3-dimensional structure of TNPc was well defined within the pharmacophoric disulfide ring, displaying two turn-like regions (RMSD = 1.15 Å). Further, its much greater biological stability together with its selectivity and potency will enhance its usefulness as a biological tool.

Abstract
The natriuretic peptides (NPs) hormone family, which consists mainly of atrial, brain, and C-type NPs (ANP, BNP, and CNP), play diverse roles in mammalian species, ranging from renal, cardiac, endocrine, neural, and vascular hemodynamics to metabolic regulations, immune responsiveness, and energy distributions. Over the last four decades, new data has transpired regarding the biochemical and molecular compositions, signaling mechanisms, and physiological and pathophysiological functions of NPs and their receptors. NPs are incremented mainly in eliciting natriuretic, diuretic, endocrine, vasodilatory, and neurological activities, along with antiproliferative, antimitogenic, antiinflammatory, and antifibrotic responses. The main locus responsible in the biological and physiological regulatory actions of NPs (ANP and BNP) is the plasma membrane guanylyl cyclase/natriuretic peptide receptor-A (GC-A/NPRA), a member of the growing multi-limbed GC family of receptors. Advances in this field have provided tremendous insights into the critical role of Npr1 (encoding GC-A/NPRA) in the reduction of fluid volume and blood pressure homeostasis, protection against renal and cardiac remodeling, and moderation and mediation of neurological disorders. The generation and use of genetically engineered animals, including gene-targeted (gene-knockout and gene-duplication) and transgenic mutant mouse models has revealed and clarified the varied roles and pleiotropic functions of GC-A/NPRA in vivo in intact animals. This review provides a chronological development of the biochemical, molecular, physiological, and pathophysiological functions of GC-A/NPRA, including signaling pathways, genomics, and gene regulation in both normal and disease states.

Software-aided detection and structural characterization of cyclic peptide metabolites in biological matrix by high-resolution mass spectrometry. J Pharm Anal 2020; 10:240-246.

Abstract
Compared to their linear counterparts, cyclic peptides show better biological activities, such as antibacterial, immunosuppressive, and anti-tumor activities, and pharmaceutical properties due to their conformational rigidity. However, cyclic peptides could form numerous putative metabolites from potential hydrolytic cleavages and their fragments are very difficult to interpret. These characteristics pose a great challenge when analyzing metabolites of cyclic peptides by mass spectrometry. This study was to assess and apply a software-aided analytical workflow for the detection and structural characterization of cyclic peptide metabolites. Insulin and atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) as model cyclic peptides were incubated with trypsin/chymotrypsin and/or rat liver S9, followed by data acquisition using TripleTOF® 5600. Resultant full-scan MS and MS/MS datasets were automatically processed through a combination of targeted and untargeted peak finding strategies. MS/MS spectra of predicted metabolites were interrogated against putative metabolite sequences, in light of a, b, y and internal fragment series. The resulting fragment assignments led to the confirmation and ranking of the metabolite sequences and identification of metabolic modification. As a result, 29 metabolites with linear or cyclic structures were detected in the insulin incubation with the hydrolytic enzymes. Sequences of twenty insulin metabolites were further determined, which were consistent with the hydrolytic sites of these enzymes. In the same manner, multiple metabolites of insulin and ANP formed in rat liver S9 incubation were detected and structurally characterized, some of which have not been previously reported. The results demonstrated the utility of software-aided data processing tool in detection and identification of cyclic peptide metabolites. A software-aided workflow enabling detection and characterization of cyclic peptide metabolites by LC/HRMS. Automatically data processing through a combination of targeted and untargeted peak finding strategies. MS/MS spectra of predicted metabolites interrogated against putative metabolite sequences. Rapidly determining metabolite profiles of insulin and atrial natriuretic peptide in rat liver S9. Potentially applicable to metabolic soft spot analysis and in vitro metabolism across species in drug discovery.

Abstract
The optical control over biological function with small photoswitchable molecules has gathered significant attention in the last decade. Herein, we describe the design and synthesis of a small library of photoswitchable peptidomimetics based upon human atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP), in which the photochromic amino acid [3-(3-aminomethyl)phenylazo]phenylacetic acid (AMPP) is incorporated into the peptide backbone. The endogeneous hormone ANP signals via the natriuretic peptide receptor A (NPR-A) through raising intracellular cGMP concentrations, and is involved in blood pressure regulation and sodium homeostasis, as well as lipid metabolism and pancreatic function. The cis- and trans-isomers of one of our peptidomimetics, termed TOP271, exhibit a four-fold difference in NPR-A mediated cGMP synthesis in vitro. Despite this seemingly small difference, TOP271 enables large, optically-induced conformational changes ex vivo and transforms the NPR-A into an endogenous photoswitch. Thus, application of TOP271 allows the reversible generation of cGMP using light and remote control can be afforded over vasoactivity in explanted murine aortic rings, as well as pancreatic beta cell function in islets of Langerhans. This study demonstrates the broad applicability of TOP271 to enzyme-dependent signalling processes, extends the toolbox of photoswitchable molecules to all classes of transmembrane receptors and utilizes photopharmacology to deduce receptor activation on a molecular level.

Abstract
Thus far, three related natriuretic peptides (NPs) and three distinct sub-types of cognate NP receptors have been identified and characterized based on the specific ligand binding affinities, guanylyl cyclase activity, and generation of intracellular cGMP. Atrial and brain natriuretic peptides (ANP and BNP) specifically bind and activate guanylyl cyclase/natriuretic peptide receptor-A (GC-A/NPRA), and C-type natriuretic peptide (CNP) shows specificity to activate guanylyl cyclase/natriuretic peptide receptor-B (GC-B/NPRB). All three NPs bind to natriuretic peptide receptor-C (NPRC), which is also known as clearance or silent receptor. The NPRA is considered the principal biologically active receptor of NP family; however, the molecular signaling mechanisms of NP receptors are not well understood. The activation of NPRA and NPRB produces the intracellular second messenger cGMP, which serves as the major signaling molecule of all three NPs. The activation of NPRB in response to CNP also produces the intracellular cGMP; however, at lower magnitude than that of NPRA, which is activated by ANP and BNP. In addition to enhanced accumulation of intracellular cGMP in response to all three NPs, the levels of cAMP, Ca2+ and inositol triphosphate (IP3) have also been reported to be altered in different cells and tissue types. Interestingly, ANP has been found to lower the concentrations of cAMP, Ca2+, and IP3; however, NPRC has been proposed to increase the levels of these metabolic signaling molecules. The mechanistic studies of decreased and/or increased levels of cAMP, Ca2+, and IP3 in response to NPs and their receptors have not yet been clearly established. This review focuses on the signaling mechanisms of ANP/NPRA and their biological effects involving an increased level of intracellular accumulation of cGMP and a decreased level of cAMP, Ca2+, and IP3 in different cells and tissue systems.

Abstract
Thus far, three related natriuretic peptides (NPs) and three distinct receptors have been identified, which have advanced our knowledge towards understanding the control of high blood pressure, hypertension, and cardiovascular disorders to a great extent. Biochemical and molecular studies have been advanced to examine receptor function and signaling mechanisms and the role of second messenger cGMP in pathophysiology of hypertension, renal hemodynamics, and cardiovascular functions. The development of gene-knockout and gene-duplication mouse models along with transgenic mice have provided a framework for understanding the importance of the antagonistic actions of natriuretic peptides receptor in cardiovascular events at the molecular level. Now, NPs are considered as circulating markers of congestive heart failure, however, their therapeutic potential for the treatment of cardiovascular diseases such as hypertension, renal insufficiency, cardiac hypertrophy, congestive heart failure, and stroke has just begun to unfold. Indeed, the alternative avenues of investigations in this important are need to be undertaken, as we are at the initial stage of the molecular therapeutic and pharmacogenomic implications.

Abstract
Atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) and the homologous B-type natriuretic peptide are cardiac hormones that dilate blood vessels and stimulate natriuresis and diuresis, thereby lowering blood pressure and blood volume. ANP and B-type natriuretic peptide counterbalance the actions of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone and neurohormonal systems, and play a central role in cardiovascular regulation. These activities are mediated by natriuretic peptide receptor-A (NPRA), a single transmembrane segment, guanylyl cyclase (GC)-linked receptor that occurs as a homodimer. Here, we present an overview of the structure, possible chloride-mediated regulation and signaling mechanism of NPRA and other receptor GCs. Earlier, we determined the crystal structures of the NPRA extracellular domain with and without bound ANP. Their structural comparison has revealed a novel ANP-induced rotation mechanism occurring in the juxtamembrane region that apparently triggers transmembrane signal transduction. More recently, the crystal structures of the dimerized catalytic domain of green algae GC Cyg12 and that of cyanobacterium GC Cya2 have been reported. These structures closely resemble that of the adenylyl cyclase catalytic domain, consisting of a C1 and C2 subdomain heterodimer. Adenylyl cyclase is activated by binding of G(s)α to C2 and the ensuing 7° rotation of C1 around an axis parallel to the central cleft, thereby inducing the heterodimer to adopt a catalytically active conformation. We speculate that, in NPRA, the ANP-induced rotation of the juxtamembrane domains, transmitted across the transmembrane helices, may induce a similar rotation in each of the dimerized GC catalytic domains, leading to the stimulation of the GC catalytic activity.

Abstract
The binding of atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) to its receptor requires chloride, and it is chloride concentration dependent. The extracellular domain (ECD) of the ANP receptor (ANPR) contains a chloride near the ANP-binding site, suggesting a possible regulatory role. The bound chloride, however, is completely buried in the polypeptide fold, and its functional role has remained unclear. Here, we have confirmed that chloride is necessary for ANP binding to the recombinant ECD or the full-length ANPR expressed in CHO cells. ECD without chloride (ECD(-)) did not bind ANP. Its binding activity was fully restored by bromide or chloride addition. A new X-ray structure of the bromide-bound ECD is essentially identical to that of the chloride-bound ECD. Furthermore, bromide atoms are localized at the same positions as chloride atoms both in the apo and in the ANP-bound structures, indicating exchangeable and reversible halide binding. Far-UV CD and thermal unfolding data show that ECD(-) largely retains the native structure. Sedimentation equilibrium in the absence of chloride shows that ECD(-) forms a strongly associated dimer, possibly preventing the structural rearrangement of the two monomers that is necessary for ANP binding. The primary and tertiary structures of the chloride-binding site in ANPR are highly conserved among receptor-guanylate cyclases and metabotropic glutamate receptors. The chloride-dependent ANP binding, reversible chloride binding, and the highly conserved chloride-binding site motif suggest a regulatory role for the receptor bound chloride. Chloride-dependent regulation of ANPR may operate in the kidney, modulating ANP-induced natriuresis.

Abstract
Courtship behavior in salamanders of the family Plethodontidae can last more than an hour. During courtship, males use stereotyped behaviors to repeatedly deliver a variety of proteinaceous pheromones to the female. These pheromones are produced and released from a specialized gland on the male's chin (the mental gland). Several pheromone components are well characterized and represented by high frequency transcripts in cDNA pools derived from plethodontid mental glands. However, evolutionary trends in the overall composition of the pheromonal signal are poorly understood. To address this issue, we used random sequencing to survey the pheromone composition of the mental gland in a representative species from each of three distantly related plethodontid genera. We analyzed 856 high-quality expressed sequence tags (ESTs) derived from unamplified primary cDNA libraries constructed from mental glands of Desmognathus ocoee, Eurycea guttolineata, and Plethodon shermani. We found marked differences among these species in the transcript frequency for three previously identified, functional pheromone components: Plethodontid Receptivity Factor (PRF), Sodefrin Precursor-Like Factor (SPF), and Plethodontid Modulating Factor (PMF). In P. shermani mental glands, transcripts predominately encoded PMF (45% of all ESTs) and PRF (15%), with less than 0.5% SPF. In contrast, in D. ocoee and E. guttolineata the proportions were approximately 20% SPF, 5% PMF, and PRF was absent. For both D. ocoee and E. guttolineata, peptide hormone-like transcripts occur at high frequency and may encode peptides that change the physiological state of the female, influencing the female's likelihood to complete courtship. These and previous results indicate that the evolution of courtship pheromones in the Plethodontidae is dynamic, contrasting with the predominant mode of evolutionary stasis for courtship behavior and morphology.

Abstract
Increasing evidence suggests that natriuretic peptides (NPs) play diverse roles in mammals, including renal hemodynamics, neuroendocrine, and cardiovascular functions. Collectively, NPs are classified as hypotensive hormones; the main actions of NPs are implicated in eliciting natriuretic, diuretic, steroidogenic, antiproliferative, and vasorelaxant effects, important factors in the control of body fluid volume and blood pressure homeostasis. One of the principal loci involved in the regulatory actions of NPs is their cognate plasma membrane receptor molecules, which are activated by binding with specific NPs. Interaction of NPs with their receptors plays a central role in physiology and pathophysiology of hypertension and cardiovascular disorders. Gaining insight into the intricacies of NPs-specific receptor signaling pathways is of pivotal importance for understanding both hormone-receptor biology and the disease states arising from abnormal hormone receptor interplay. During the last decade there has been a surge in interest in NP receptors; consequently, a wealth of information has emerged concerning molecular structure and function, signaling mechanisms, and use of transgenics and gene-targeted mouse models. The objective of this present review is to summarize and document the previous findings and recent discoveries in the field of the natriuretic peptide hormone family and receptor systems with emphasis on the structure-function relationship, signaling mechanisms, and the physiological and pathophysiological significance in health and disease.

Abstract
The atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) receptor is a single-span transmembrane receptor that is coupled to its intrinsic intracellular guanylate cyclase (GCase) catalytic activity. To investigate the mechanisms of hormone binding and signal transduction, we have expressed the extracellular hormone-binding domain of the ANP receptor (ANPR) and characterized its structure and function. The disulfide-bond structure, state of glycosylation, binding-site residues, chloride-dependence of ANP binding, dimerization, and binding stoichiometry have been determined. More recently, the crystal structures of both the apoANPR dimer and ANP-bound complex have been determined. The structural comparison between the two has shown that, upon ANP binding, two ANPR molecules in the dimer undergo an inter-molecular twist with little intra-molecular conformational change. This motion produces a Ferris wheel-like translocation of two juxtamembrane domains with essentially no change in the inter-domain distance. This movement alters the relative orientation of the two domains equivalent to counter-clockwise rotation of each by 24 degrees . These results suggest that transmembrane signaling by the ANP receptor is mediated by a novel hormone-induced rotation mechanism.

Abstract
This study analyzed the origin and evolution of snake venom proteome by means of phylogenetic analysis of the amino acid sequences of the toxins and related nonvenom proteins. The snake toxins were shown to have arisen from recruitment events of genes from within the following protein families: acetylcholinesterase, ADAM (disintegrin/metalloproteinase), AVIT, complement C3, crotasin/beta defensin, cystatin, endothelin, factor V, factor X, kallikrein, kunitz-type proteinase inhibitor, LYNX/SLUR, L-amino oxidase, lectin, natriuretic peptide, betanerve growth factor, phospholipase A(2), SPla/Ryanodine, vascular endothelial growth factor, and whey acidic protein/secretory leukoproteinase inhibitor. Toxin recruitment events were found to have occurred at least 24 times in the evolution of snake venom. Two of these toxin derivations (CRISP and kallikrein toxins) appear to have been actually the result of modifications of existing salivary proteins rather than gene recruitment events. One snake toxin type, the waglerin peptides from Tropidolaemus wagleri (Wagler's Viper), did not have a match with known proteins and may be derived from a uniquely reptilian peptide. All of the snake toxin types still possess the bioactivity of the ancestral proteins in at least some of the toxin isoforms. However, this study revealed that the toxin types, where the ancestral protein was extensively cysteine cross-linked, were the ones that flourished into functionally diverse, novel toxin multigene families.

Abstract
Three natriuretic-like peptides (TNP-a, TNP-b, and TNP-c) were isolated from the venom of Oxyuranus microlepidotus (inland taipan) and were also present in the venoms of Oxyuranus scutellatus canni (New Guinea taipan) and Oxyuranus scutellatus scutellatus (coastal taipan). They were isolated by HPLC, characterised by mass spectrometry and Edman analysis, and consist of 35-39 amino acid residues. These molecules differ from ANP/BNP through replacement of invariant residues within the 17-membered ring structure and by inclusion of proline residues in the C-terminal tail. TNP-c was equipotent to ANP in specific GC-A assays or aortic ring assays whereas TNP-a and TNP-b were either inactive (GC-A over-expressing cells and endothelium-denuded aortic rings) or weakly active (endothelium-intact aortic rings). TNP-a and TNP-b were also unable to competitively inhibit the binding of TNP-c in endothelium-denuded aortae (GC-A) or endothelium-intact aortae (NPR-C). Thus, these naturally occurring isoforms provide a new platform for further investigation of structure-function relationships of natriuretic peptides.

Abstract
A cardiac hormone, atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP), plays a major role in blood pressure and volume regulation. ANP activities are mediated by a single span transmembrane receptor carrying intrinsic guanylate cyclase activity. ANP binding to its extracellular domain stimulates guanylate cyclase activity by an as yet unknown mechanism. Here we report the crystal structure of dimerized extracellular hormone-binding domain in complex with ANP. The structural comparison with the unliganded receptor reveals that hormone binding causes the two receptor monomers to undergo an intermolecular twist with little intramolecular conformational change. This motion produces a Ferris wheel-like translocation of two juxtamembrane domains in the dimer with essentially no change in the interdomain distance. This movement alters the relative orientation of the two domains by a shift equivalent to counterclockwise rotation of each by 24 degrees. These results suggest that transmembrane signaling by the ANP receptor is initiated via a hormone-induced rotation mechanism.

Abstract
The goal of this study was to test the ability of small high density lipoproteins (small HDL) to bind human alpha-atrial natriuretic peptide (alpha-hANP), an amyloidogenic peptide whose involvement in cardiac pathologies is gaining increasing clinical evidence. After incubation of HDL with labeled ANP, the peptide associated to lipoprotein was detectable only in small HDL containing preparations. HDL-associated alpha-[(125)I]hANP was subjected to chromatography, electrophoresis, and autoradiography. The autoradiograph showed two radioactive bands, whose molecular weight was consistent with the chromatographic pattern. Immunoblotting showed the presence of apo A-I in both autoradiographic bands. The proteins of the main band were electroeluted, incubated with labeled ANP, and subjected to two-dimensional electrophoresis followed by autoradiography. The mass spectrometry and molecular weight analyses of the radioactive spot demonstrated the presence of an apo A-I dimer. This finding provided a novel solid evidence that small HDL via apo A-I dimer are involved in the ANP sequestration and thus may play a role in preventing amyloid fibril formation.

Abstract
The atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP), a member of the natriuretic peptide family, is a cardiovascular hormone which possesses well defined natriuretic, diuretic, and vasodilating properties. Most of the biological effects of ANP aremediated through its guanylyl cyclase coupled A receptor. Because ANP and its receptors have been shown to be expressed and differentially regulated in the immune system, it has been suggested that ANP has an immunomodulatory potency. Much investigation of the effects of ANP on the activation of macrophages has been carried out. ANP was shown to inhibit the lipopolysaccharide (LPS)-induced expression of inducible nitric oxide synthase (iNOS) in macrophages in an autocrine fashion. ANP in this context was shown to reduce significantly the activation of NF-kappaB and to destabilise iNOS mRNA. ANP, furthermore, can significantly reduce the LPS-induced secretion of tumour necrosis factor alpha (TNFalpha) in macrophages. The relevance of these findings on a regulatory role for ANP on TNFalpha in humans was shown by the fact that ANP significantly reduces the release of TNFalpha in whole human blood. It was furthermore shown to attenuate the release of interleukin 1beta (IL1beta). Interestingly, ANP did not affect the secretion of the anti-inflammatory cytokines IL10 and IL1 receptor antagonist (IL1ra). In summary, ANP was shown to reduce the secretion of inflammatory mediators in macrophages. Therefore, this cardiovascular hormone may possess anti-inflammatory potential.

Abstract
This study investigated the hypothesis that atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) responses are mediated by particulate guanylate cyclase in the pulmonary vascular bed of the cat. When tone in the pulmonary vascular bed was raised to a high steady level with the thromboxane mimic U-46619, injections of ANP caused dose-related decreases in lobar arterial pressure. After administration of HS-142-1, an ANP-A- and ANP-B-receptor antagonist, vasodilator responses to ANP were reduced. The nitric oxide (NO) synthase inhibitor N(omega)-nitro-L-arginine methyl ester (L-NAME) enhanced ANP vasodilator responses, suggesting that inhibition of NO modulates ANP responses. L-NAME administration with constant 8-bromo-cGMP infusion attenuated the increased vasodilator response to ANP, suggesting that supersensitivity to ANP occurs upstream to activation of a cGMP-dependent protein kinase. In pulmonary arterial rings, ANP produced concentration-related vasorelaxant responses with and without endothelium. Methylene blue, L-NAME, or N(omega)-monomethyl-L-arginine did not alter ANP vasorelaxant responses. These data show that ANP supersensitivity observed in the intact pulmonary vascular bed is not seen in isolated pulmonary arterial segments, suggesting that it may only occur in resistance vessel elements. These results suggest that ANP responses occur through activation of ANP-A and/or -B receptors in an endothelium-independent manner and are modulated by NO in resistance vessel elements in the pulmonary vascular bed of the cat.

Abstract
The cyclic peptide ANP 4-23 and the linear peptide analogue AP-811 have been shown to be selective ANP-CR antagonists. Via alanine scanning and truncation studies we sought to determine which residues in these molecules were important in their binding to the clearance receptor and the relationship between these two molecules. These studies show that several modifications to these compounds are possible which improve physical properties of these molecules while retaining high affinity for the ANP-CR.

Abstract
The atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) is suggested to regulate inflammatory response by alteration of macrophage functions. The aim of this study was to investigate whether ANP influences production of TNF-alpha. TNF-alpha production in murine bone marrow-derived macrophages was induced by LPS, and TNF-alpha secretion (+/-ANP) was determined by L929 bioassay. ANP dose dependently (10-8-10-6 M) inhibited TNF-alpha release by up to 95%. The effect was mediated via the guanylate cyclase-coupled A receptor, as was shown by employing dibutyryl-cGMP, the cGMP-inhibitory compound Ly-83583, and the A receptor antagonist HS-142-1. A specific ligand of the natriuretic peptide "clearance" receptor inhibited TNF-alpha production only at 10-7 and 10-8 M, but not at 10-6 M. The B receptor ligand C-type natriuretic peptide showed no TNF-alpha-inhibitory effect. To investigate the underlying mechanism of ANP-mediated TNF-alpha inhibition, Northern blot was performed. ANP-treated macrophages displayed decreased TNF-alpha-mRNA levels. Besides the known inhibition of NF-kappaB activation, in this study we demonstrated that ANP also attenuates the activation of the proinflammatory transcription factor AP-1 (gel shift assay). ANP did not alter subunit composition of AP-1 complexes, as was shown by supershift assays applying anti-c-jun and anti-c-fos Abs. To get information on the ANP effect for human inflammatory processes, we investigated cytokine production in human LPS-activated blood. ANP significantly attenuated production of TNF-alpha and IL-1beta without affecting production of IL-10 and IL-1ra. In summary, ANP was shown to attenuate TNF-alpha production of LPS-activated macrophages via cGMP. The inhibition is suggested to involve transcriptional processes that are the result of reduced activation of responsible transcription factors.

Abstract
Two Nalpha-benzophenone-substituted photoprobes, derived from the high affinity NPR-A chimeric agonist [N, C, rANP(1-28)]pBNP32 (pBNP1) were assembled by solid-phase peptide synthesis. [Nalpha-p-benzoylbenzoyl, Tyr2]pBNP1 (probe A), and [Nalpha-p-benzoylbenzoyl, Tyr18]pBNP1 (probe B) were synthesized and their affinity was tested on bovine zona glomerulosa membrane preparations. Both were found to exert ANP-type high affinities (Kd = 20 pM) with Kd of 10 pM and 30 pM for probe A, and probe B, respectively. Photolabeling of NPR-A with both analogs cross-linked specifically the 130 kDa monomeric NPR-A. The maximal irreversible ligand incorporations were estimated at 18% and 41% for probe A, and probe B, respectively. These results show that the N-terminus of the chimeric compound can be acylated with a large chemical function, such as the benzophenone moiety, without loosing its affinity for the NPR-A receptor. Furthermore, Leu2 or Leu18 can be substituted with tyrosine without disturbing the binding capacity of the ligand. Finally, it appears that the pBNP1 N-terminus is close to the receptor structure as irreversible incorporation is observed after photolabeling.

Abstract
Atrial natriuretic peptide receptor (ANP) subtypes and their signal transduction response were characterized in choroid plexus of spontaneously hypertensive (SHR) and normotensive (WKY) rats. We found two ANP receptor subtypes, guanylate cyclase coupled and uncoupled, in both rat strains. Binding of ANP was lower in SHR choroid plexus when compared to WKY. The lower ANP binding in SHR was the result of a decrease of binding to the guanylate cyclase-coupled receptor subtype A, a decrease that correlated well with the decreased ANP-induced cGMP formation in SHR. Forskolin stimulated cGMP production to the same extent in both strains. In WKY rats, ANP increased basal and forskolin-stimulated cAMP production; conversely, in SHR, ANP did not affect the basal level of cAMP and inhibited the forskolin-stimulated cAMP production. These results demonstrate differences in ANP receptor subtype expression, and ANP signal transduction in choroid plexus of hypertensive and normotensive rats, which is of possible significance to the central mechanisms of blood pressure control.

Abstract
BACKGROUNDS & AIMS The role of atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) in gastrointestinal motility is still unclear. The aim of this study was to investigate the relationship between ANP and vasoactive intestinal peptide (VIP) in guinea pig cecal circular smooth muscle cells. METHODS The inhibition of 125I-ANP binding or 125I-VIP binding to cecal smooth muscle cells was assessed using unlabeled peptides (i.e., ANP, ANP fragments, VIP, secretin, and peptide histidine isoleucine); the effect of ANP, ANP fragments, and VIP on muscle contraction stimulated by 1 mumol/L carbachol was assessed; and the inhibitory effects of ANP 1-11 on VIP-induced relaxation, ANP 1-11 and VIP 10-28 (a VIP antagonist) on ANP-induced relaxation, and nitric oxide production inhibitors on ANP-induced relaxation were assessed. RESULTS The specific binding of 125I-ANP was inhibited completely by unlabeled ANP and VIP in a dose-dependent manner but only slightly inhibited by secretin and peptide histidine isoleucine. ANP 1-11 and C-atrial natriuretic factor inhibited the binding of 125I-ANP with a lower affinity than ANP. ANP only partly inhibited 125I-VIP binding. ANP and VIP inhibited 1 mumol/L carbachol-induced contraction in a dose-dependent manner. ANP 1-11 significantly inhibited VIP-induced relaxation. ANP 1-11, VIP 10-28, and NO production inhibitors completely inhibited ANP-induced relaxation. CONCLUSIONS The results of the study showed that ANP 1-11 antagonized ANP-induced relaxation and that ANP stimulated NO production and subsequently induced relaxation via a receptor to which VIP binds.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Our purpose was to compare the actions of atrial natriuretic peptide and brain natriuretic peptide in the human placental vasculature. STUDY DESIGN Isolated placental cotyledons were dually perfused with fetal perfusion pressure used as an index of vascular response. The effect of angiotensin II (10(-10) to 10(-6) mol/L bolus injection) was established in the absence or presence of atrial natriuretic peptide (10(-8) mol/L) or brain natriuretic peptide (10(-8) mol/L final concentration). The role of nitric oxide as a mediator of natriuretic peptide action was investigated by perfusion of n-nitro-L-arginine (10(-3) mol/L), an inhibitor of nitric oxide synthase. Attenuation of the action of atrial natriuretic peptide by placental peptidases was studied by perfusion with the peptidase inhibitor benzamidine (2 x 10(-2) mol/L). Statistical significance was determined by analysis of variance and paired t test. RESULTS Significant attenuation of vasoconstrictor responses to angiotensin II occurred within both atrial natriuretic peptide and brain natriuretic peptide; however, brain natriuretic peptide was more effective. n-Nitro-L-arginine did not affect the attenuation of angiotensin II-induced vasoconstriction by atrial or brain natriuretic peptides. In the presence of benzamidine atrial natriuretic peptide exerted a significantly greater vasodilator effect. CONCLUSION Brain natriuretic peptide is a more potent vasodilator of the placental vasculature than is atrial natriuretic peptide. The low efficacy of atrial natriuretic peptide may be related to placental peptidases. Nitric oxide does not mediate the action of atrial natriuretic peptide or brain natriuretic peptide.

We studied the expression of atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) receptor subtypes during development in the rat forebrain, using quantitative autoradiography. Highest ANP binding was observed in the cortical neuroepithelium at embryonic day 17. Lower ANP binding was found in cingulate and frontal cortices at postnatal day 10, but none was detectable at 8 weeks of age. In the neuroepithelium of the embryonic rat, binding was displaced with a potency of rat ANP-(1-28) (rANP) > porcine type-C natriuretic peptide (pCNP-22) = rat ANP fragment C-ANP-(4-23) (rC-ANP-(4-23)) = rat brain natriuretic peptide (rBNP-32), different from that of any of the well-characterized (ANPA, ANPB, and ANPC) natriuretic peptide receptors. The present results support the hypothesis of a role for ANP during brain maturation and indicate that the ANP receptors highly expressed in the embryonic neuroepithelium may belong to a new ANP receptor subtype not yet characterized.

Abstract
The renal and in vitro vascular effects of atrial natriuretic peptides have been examined in several species of fish. However, comparatively few investigations have described the effects of these peptides on the cardiovascular system in vivo. In the present experiments the dorsal aorta and urinary bladder were cannulated and the effects of atrial natriuretic peptides from rat and eel were monitored in conscious trout during bolus injection or continuous atrial natriuretic peptide infusion. The results show that the initial pressor effect of atrial natriuretic peptides is independent of environmental salinity adaptation (fresh or seawater) and the chemical form of atrial natriuretic peptide injected, but it is affected by the rate of atrial natriuretic peptide administration. This pressor response, and the accompanying diuresis, are mediated through alpha-adrenergic activation. Continuous infusion of either rat or eel atrial natriuretic peptide produces a steady fall in mean arterial blood pressure, which is temporally preceded by an increase in heart rate and a decrease in pulse pressure. Diuresis induced by atrial natriuretic peptides is only partially sustained during continuous infusion. Propranolol partially blocks the increase induced in heart rate by atrial natriuretic peptides, but does not affect either pulse pressure or mean arterial pressure. Propranolol significantly increases urine flow in saline-infused animals but has no apparent effect on animals subjected to infusions of atrial natriuretic peptides. These results indicate that there are multiple foci for the action of atrial natriuretic peptides in trout and that in many instances the effects of atrial natriuretic peptides are mediated through secondary effector systems.

Abstract
After the description in the past 5 years of BNP and CNP, interest in the natriuretic peptide family has dramatically increased. Molecular characterization of the receptors for this hormone family has identified a heterogeneity in the receptor subtypes not previously alluded to by pharmacological or biochemical studies. Much has been published on the physiology of ANP, but the major roles for BNP and CNP remain to be elucidated. Some experiments indicate that ANP and BNP may act synergistically, especially during cardiac stress; however, the high level of structural diversity of BNP among species and the ability of porcine BNP, but not human BNP, to activate human NPR-B suggest that an as yet unidentified receptor may exist that specifically recognizes BNP. Localization studies have implied that CNP is the most prominent neuropeptide in the natriuretic peptide family, and the restriction of its receptor, NPR-B, to the nervous system suggests that CNP and NPR-B may act in the brain to coordinate the central aspects of body fluid homeostasis. Of the three known NPRs, two, NPR-A and NPR-B, are capable of synthesizing their own second messenger, cGMP. The domain within these receptors that has high homology to protein kinases has been demonstrated to be essential for regulating this activity. No kinase activity has been measured in these proteins, but it is possible that this region is important for ATP regulation of guanylyl cyclase activity. This possibility raises interesting parallels with receptor-mediated cAMP signaling within cells. Seven transmembrane receptors, once activated by ligand, associate with G proteins to affect the activity of adenylyl cyclase.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
The natriuretic peptide receptors, NPR-A and NPR-B, are two members of the newly described class of receptor guanylyl cyclases. The kinaselike domain of these proteins is an important regulator of the guanylyl cyclase activity. To begin to understand the molecular nature of this type of regulation, we made complete and partial deletions of the kinase domain in NPR-A and NPR-B. We also made chimeric proteins in which the kinase domains of NPR-A and NPR-B were exchanged or replaced with kinase domains from structurally similar proteins. Complete deletion of the kinase homology domain in NPR-A and NPR-B resulted in constitutive activation of the guanylyl cyclase. Various partial deletions of this region produced proteins that had no ability to activate the enzyme with or without hormone stimulation. The kinase homology domain can be exchanged between the two subtypes with no effect on regulation. However, structurally similar kinaselike domains, such as from the epidermal growth factor receptor or from the heat-stable enterotoxin receptor, another member of the receptor guanylyl cyclase family, were not able to regulate the guanylyl cyclase activity correctly. These findings suggest that the kinaselike domain of NPR-A and NPR-B requires strict sequence conservation to maintain proper regulation of their guanylyl cyclase activity.

Abstract
We have prepared an atrial natriuretic peptide analog, ANP[13-27][1-12], in which the connectivity of the disulfide-linked ring has been reversed by formally cleaving the ring and cyclizing the N- and C-terminal tails. This analog, which retains many of the spatial relationships of the native molecule, binds to both ANP-A and ANP-C receptor subtypes, and triggers the production of cyclic-GMP by ANP-A. ANP-C binding of ANP[13-27][1- 12] is roughly equipotent to that of ANP itself, although the ring cleavage falls within the putative ANP-C binding domain. ANP[13-27][1-8], a truncated analog in which much of this binding domain has been removed, surprisingly maintains a high affinity for ANP-C; however, this peptide has lost the ability to activate the ANP-A-linked guanylate cyclase.

Abstract
The first human studies using relatively high-doses of ANF revealed similar effects as observed in the preceding animal reports, including effects on systemic vasculature (blood pressure fall, decrease in intravascular volume), renal vasculature (rise in GFR, fall in renal blood flow), renal electrolyte excretion (rises in many electrolytes), and changes in release of a number of different hormones. Whether all these changes are the result of direct ANF effects or secondary to a (single) primary event of the hormone remains to be determined. Certainly, it has been proven that more physiological doses of ANF fail to induce short-term changes in many of these parameters leaving only a rise in hematocrit, natriuresis and an inhibition of the RAAS as important detectable ANF effects in humans. This leads us to hypothesize that ANF is a "natriuretic" hormone with physiological significance. The primary function in humans is to regulate sodium homeostasis in response to changes in intravascular volume (cardiac atrial stretch). Induction of excess renal sodium excretion and extracellular volume shift appear to be the effector mechanisms. The exact mechanism of the natriuresis in humans still needs to be resolved. It appears however, that possibly a small rise in GFR, a reduction in proximal and distal tubular sodium reabsorption, as well as an ensuing medullary washout, are of importance. The pathophysiological role of ANF in human disease is unclear. One may find elevated plasma irANF levels and/or decreased responses to exogenous ANF in some disease states. Whether these findings are secondary to the disease state rather than the cause of the disease remains to be resolved. Therapeutic applications for ANF, or drugs that intervene in its production or receptor-binding, seem to be multiple. Most important could be the antihypertensive effect, although areas such as congestive heart failure, renal failure, liver cirrhosis and the nephrotic syndrome cannot be excluded. Although the data that have been gathered to date allowed us to draw some careful conclusions as to the (patho)physiological role of ANF, the exact place of ANF in sodium homeostatic control must still be better defined. To achieve this, we will need more carefully designed low-dose ANF infusion, as well as ANF-breakdown inhibitor studies. Even more promising, however, is the potential area of studies open to us when ANF-receptor (ant)agonists become available for human use.

Abstract
In ischemia-reflow states of coronary artery disease, the activation of PMN precedes the initiation of tissue damage. Release of atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) from myocytes occurs within minutes after the onset of myocardial ischemia, which suggests a possible role of ANP in PMN activation. To investigate this possibility, we tested the effects of ANP on functions of PMN in vitro. ANP is a potent signal for priming the PMN respiration burst to secrete superoxide anion. Phorbol 12-myristate 13-acetate, opsonized zymosan, or FMLP could all be used as triggering stimuli to demonstrate the priming of PMN activation by ANP. Only ANP fragments 1-28 and 7-28 enhanced respiration burst activity but identical preparations of ANP fragments 13-18 or 1-11 failed to do so. This structure-activity relationship is typical of receptors for ANP found in other tissues. In addition, ANP stimulated the release of beta-glucuronidase From PMN triggered by FMLP. The observed inhibition by ANP of FMLP-stimulated chemotaxis of PMN may be due to their enhanced adhesiveness. These data show that a classic cardiac hormone is involved in regulating important functional activities of PMN. These data support the possibility that ANP could act as a preinflammatory substance in ischemia-reperfusion states and myocardial necrosis.

Abstract
We studied the distribution of C atrial natriuretic peptide (C-ANP) receptors in the rat brain after incubation with 125I-rANP, and competition with the selective C-ANP receptor competitor C-ANP(4-23) (10(-6) M). C-ANP receptors were selectively localized to a few structures, the external plexiform layer of the olfactory bulb, the arachnoid mater and the choroid plexus, and their amount corresponds to 25%, 75% and 35%, respectively, of the ANP specific binding. These data suggest specialized functions for C-ANP receptors in brain.

Abstract
The natriuretic peptides are hormones that can stimulate natriuretic, diuretic, and vasorelaxant activity in vivo, presumably through the activation of two known cell surface receptor guanylyl cyclases (ANPR-A and ANPR-B). Although atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) and, to a lesser extent, brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) are efficient activators of the ANPR-A guanylyl cyclase, neither hormone can significantly stimulate ANPR-B. A member of this hormone family, C-type natriuretic peptide (CNP), potently and selectively activated the human ANPR-B guanylyl cyclase. CNP does not increase guanosine 3',5'-monophosphate accumulation in cells expressing human ANPR-A. The affinity of CNP for ANPR-B is 50- or 500-fold higher than ANP or BNP, respectively. This ligand-receptor pair may be involved in the regulation of fluid homeostasis by the central nervous system.

Abstract
The guanylyl cyclase receptor family contains members that exist in both the particulate and soluble fractions of cell homogenates. Based on cloning studies, proteins with guanylyl cyclase activity contain a single transmembrane domain, or exist as heterodimers with no apparent transmembrane domains. The members containing the single transmembrane domain appear to act as cell surface receptors for peptides such as natriuretic peptides and bacterial heat-stable enterotoxins, while the heterodimeric forms are activated by nitric oxide. The concentrations of the intracellular messenger, cyclic GMP, then, are regulated by multiple primary signaling molecules, all of which appear to bind directly to the guanylyl cyclase enzyme.

Abstract
A new type of ANP receptor system which clearly distinguishes natriuretic peptides A and B (ANP and BNP) has been identified in the human adrenal tumor cell line SW-13 and characterized. SW-13 cells responded to nanomolar concentrations of ANP with large increases in cGMP levels but in the case of BNP, much higher concentrations were required to produce the same extent of response. This property is unique since the 140-kDa ANP receptors so far characterized do not discriminate between ANP and BNP. For comparison, various natriuretic peptide receptors were also re-characterized using the recently identified CNP.
