Abstract
Natriuretic peptides are structurally related, functionally diverse hormones. Circulating atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) and brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) are delivered predominantly by the heart. Two C-type natriuretic peptides (CNPs) are paracrine messengers, notably in bone, brain, and vessels. Natriuretic peptides act by binding to the extracellular domains of three receptors, NPR-A, NPR-B, and NPR-C of which the first two are guanylate cyclases. NPR-C is coupled to inhibitory proteins. Atrial wall stress is the major regulator of ANP secretion; however, atrial pressure changes plasma ANP only modestly and transiently, and the relation between plasma ANP and atrial wall tension (or extracellular volume or sodium intake) is weak. Absence and overexpression of ANP-related genes are associated with modest blood pressure changes. ANP augments vascular permeability and reduces vascular contractility, renin and aldosterone secretion, sympathetic nerve activity, and renal tubular sodium transport. Within the physiological range of plasma ANP, the responses to step-up changes are unimpressive; in man, the systemic physiological effects include diminution of renin secretion, aldosterone secretion, and cardiac preload. For BNP, the available evidence does not show that cardiac release to the blood is related to sodium homeostasis or body fluid control. CNPs are not circulating hormones, but primarily paracrine messengers important to ossification, nervous system development, and endothelial function. Normally, natriuretic peptides are not powerful natriuretic/diuretic hormones; common conclusions are not consistently supported by hard data. ANP may provide fine-tuning of reno-cardiovascular relationships, but seems, together with BNP, primarily involved in the regulation of cardiac performance and remodeling. © 2017 American Physiological Society.

Abstract
In 22 patients who underwent mitral valve replacement (13) or coronary bypass surgery (9), preoperative and postoperative plasma atrial natriuretic peptide (p-ANP) concentration, hemodynamic changes, plasma aldosterone, and twenty-four-hour urine sodium-potassium concentrations were studied. Preoperative ANP levels were 261±172 pg/mL in mitral valve replacement (MVR) and 68±22 in coronary artery bypass grafting (CABG); control levels were 15±4.7 (p < 0.001). After the induction of anesthesia, ANP levels decreased to 154.5±96.7 pg/mL in MVR and 51±17.5 in CABG (p < 0.01) patients. In the early postop erative period ANP increased to 332±217 pg/mL in MVR and to 94.3 ± 29.7 in CABG (p < 0.001). In the late postoperative period, the p-ANP of both groups returned to nor mal levels (16 ± 8.05, 11.2 ± 2.82 pg/mL, respectively). Negative correlations were detected in both MVR and CABG groups be tween p-ANP, p-aldosterone (p < 0.001), p—ANP—cardiac output (p < 0.001), and p—ANP—cardiac index (p < 0.001).

Abstract
Measurement of cardiac natriuretic peptides in plasma has gained a diagnostic role in the assessment of heart failure. Plasma measurement is though hampered by the marked instability of the hormones, which has led to the development of analyses that target N-terminal fragments from the prohormone. These fragments are stable in plasma and represent surrogate markers of the actual natriuretic hormone. Post-translational processing of the precursors, however, is revealing itself to be a complex event with new information still being reported on proteolysis, covalent modifications, and amino acid derivatizations. In this mini-review, we summarize measurement of the principal cardiac hormone, e.g. atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) and its precursor fragments. We also highlight some of the analytical pitfalls and problems and the concurrent clinical "proof of concept". We conclude that biochemical research into proANP-derived peptides is still worthy of attention and that new biological insight may change our chemical perception of the markers.

Abstract
Atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) is a cardiac hormone that elicits a profound diuresis, natriuresis, and hypotension. As a preliminary study toward ANP gene therapy of cardiovascular disorders, we have cloned a cDNA for mouse preproANP and carried out expression studies in muscle cells. The expression cassette, which was flanked by ITRs from AAV-2, consisted of HCMV IE enhancer/promoter, preproANP gene, and polyadenylation signal from bovine growth hormone. We transfected this expression vector into primary skeletal myoblasts and examined the following points: (1) secretion of immunoreactive ANP, (2) biological activity, and (3) nature of secreted ANP(s). The conditioned media from cells transfected with ANP vector had significantly higher levels of irANP in comparison to mock control. The secreted irANP had biological activity as confirmed by the elevated level of intracellular cGMP in human umbilical vein endothelial cells. Reverse-phase HPLC analysis showed that the processed form of ANP was the predominant form. These results demonstrate that preproANP gene could be ectopically expressed and correctly processed in skeletal myoblasts, which has implications for development of muscle-based ANP gene therapy.

Abstract
OBJECTIVE Our purpose was to determine whether plasma clearance rates and production rates of atrial natriuretic peptide 99-126 are altered during pregnancy in the rat. STUDY DESIGN Twelve virgin and 12 late-pregnant chronically instrumented, conscious, unrestrained Sprague-Dawley rats were studied. Mean arterial pressure, heart rate, and plasma atrial natriuretic peptide levels were measured before and during a 40-minute continuous infusion of atrial natriuretic peptide (10 ng/kg/min). RESULTS Control mean arterial pressure was 106 +/- 5 mm Hg in virgin rats versus 97 +/- 4 mm Hg in pregnant rats. Atrial natriuretic peptide infusion did not significantly affect mean arterial pressure in either group of animals but decreased heart rate in virgin rats. Basal plasma atrial natriuretic peptide levels were significantly higher in virgin than in pregnant rats (107 +/- 10 vs 78 +/- 7 pg/ml, respectively, p < 0.05). Atrial natriuretic peptide infusion significantly increased plasma levels in both groups to similar (183 +/- 19 and 154 +/- 14 pg/ml, virgin vs pregnant rats). Calculated plasma clearance rates were similar in virgin and pregnant rats (166 +/- 27 vs 155 +/- 17 ml/kg/min). Estimated production rates of atrial natriuretic peptide were higher in virgin then in pregnant rats (15.1 +/- 1.4 vs 11.4 +/- 1.1 ng/kg/min, p < 0.05). CONCLUSIONS Plasma atrial natriuretic peptide levels are lower in chronically instrumented near-term pregnant rats compared with levels in virgin rats. This is not related to differences in plasma atrial natriuretic peptide clearance rates but rather to a decrease in production rates in late pregnancy.

Abstract
Atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) is a fluid-regulating peptide hormone that promotes vasorelaxation, natriuresis, and diuresis. The mechanisms for the release of ANP and for its clearance from the circulation play important roles in modulating its biological effects. Recently, we have reported that the cell surface of an endothelial cell line, CPA47, could degrade 125I-ANP in the presence of EDTA. In this study, we have characterized this degradation of 125I-ANP. The kinetics of ANP degradation by the surface of CPA47 cells were first order, with a Km of 320 +/- 60 nM and Vmax of 35 +/- 14 pmol of ANP degraded/10 min/10(5) cells at pH 7.4. ANP is degraded by the surface of CPA47 cells over a broad pH range from 7.0-8.5. Potato carboxypeptidase inhibitor and bestatin inhibited 125I-ANP degradation, suggesting that this degradative activity on the surface of CPA47 cells has exopeptidase characteristics. The selectivity of CPA47 cell-surface degradation of ANP was demonstrated when 125I-ANP degradation was inhibited in the presence of neuropeptide Y and angiotensin I and II but not bradykinin, bombesin, endothelin-1, or substance P. The C-terminal amino acids phe26 and tyr28 were deduced to be important for ANP interaction with the cell-surface peptidase(s) based on comparison of the IC50 of various ANP analogues and other natriuretic peptides for the inhibition of ANP degradation. These data suggest that a newly characterized divalent cation-independent exopeptidase(s) that selectively recognizes ANP and some other vasoactive peptides exists on the surface of endothelial cells.

Abstract
In 13 patients with chronic renal failure on maintenance hemodialysis, plasma vasopressin, atrial natriuretic factor, catecholamines and renin activity were measured during ordinary hemodialysis with fluid removal, and during isolated isoosmotic ultrafiltration and a subsequent isovolemic hemodialysis. Concomitant with a significant fall in serum osmolality, plasma vasopressin decreased significantly from 6.3 +/- 0.8 to 3.8 +/- 0.4 pg/ml (p < 0.05). Predialytic plasma vasopressin was significantly correlated to serum osmolality (r = 0.62, p = 0.001). No such relationship was observed after dialysis. During isolated ultrafiltration (1.25 +/- 0.13 L) through 1 hour, no change in either osmolality or vasopressin was observed, whereas atrial natriuretic factor decreased (700 +/- 136 to 564 +/- 115 pg/ml, p < 0.05). Atrial natriuretic factor was excessively high at all times, and may explain the low plasma renin activity observed in these patients even after fluid removal. No consistent changes were observed in the catecholamines during hemodialysis or ultrafiltration alone, despite marked changes in blood pressure and heart rate. Thus, even in patients with chronic renal failure osmotic regulation of vasopressin seems intact, and volume reduction through ultrafiltration causes a decrease in atrial natriuretic factor.

Abstract
Atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) is rapidly cleared and degraded in vivo. Nonguanylate-cyclase receptors (C-ANPR) and a metalloproteinase, neutral endopeptidase (EC 3.4.24.11) (NEP 24.11), are thought to be responsible for its metabolism. We investigated the mechanisms of ANP degradation by an endothelial-derived cell line, CPA47. CPA47 cells degraded 88% of 125I-ANP after 1 h at 37 degrees C as determined by HPLC. Medium preconditioned by these cells degraded 41% of the 125I-ANP, and this activity was inhibited by a divalent cation chelator, EDTA. Furthermore, a cell-surface proteolytic activity degraded 125I-ANP in the presence of EDTA when receptor-mediated endocytosis was inhibited either by low temperature (4 degrees C) or by hyperosmolarity at 37 degrees C. The metalloproteinase, NEP 24.11, is unlikely to be the cell-surface peptidase because 125I-ANP is degraded by CPA47 cells at 4 degrees C in the presence of 5 mM EDTA. These data indicate that CPA47 cells can degrade ANP by a novel divalent cation-independent cell-surface proteolytic activity.

Abstract
The renal and hormonal effects of repeated atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) boli (1 microgram/kg of body weight) were studied in eight cirrhotic patients with refractory ascites. Under basal conditions the patients showed a striking activation of the renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system (plasma renin activity 19.3 +/- 3.0 ng/ml.h, plasma aldosterone concentration 3.87 +/- 0.58 ng/ml) and a tenfold elevation in plasma ANP levels compared to healthy subjects (131.7, range 47.0-288.6, vs. 9.8, range 5.0-15.0, fmol/ml, p less than 0.001). The first ANP injection was followed by a remarkable increase in plasma ANP levels and by a slight increase in urinary cyclic guanosine-monophosphate excretion (from 1050.8 +/- 454.8 to 1446.6 +/- 822.2 pmol/min). A significant reduction of mean blood pressure (MBP) occurred 5 min after the first injection (from 86.7 +/- 7.2 to 79.9 +/- 5.8 mmHg, p less than 0.05), but values gradually returned to the baseline after 30 min. Heart rate (HR) increased 10 min after the first bolus injection (from 83.75 +/- 4.7 to 88.1 +/- 4.6 beats/min) and reached baseline values after 30 min. Similar behaviour of MBP and HR was observed after the second, third and fourth bolus injections. Urinary sodium excretion, urinary flow, glomerular filtration rate, plasma renin activity, and plasma aldosterone concentration did not show any significant modification during ANP administration, nor did these parameters change in the following 12-h recovery period.(ABSTRACT TRUNCATED AT 250 WORDS)

Abstract
A novel and sensitive noncompetitive enzyme immunoassay for peptides is described. Peptides were biotinylated using sulfosuccinimidyl-6-(biotinamido)hexanoate and were trapped onto anti-peptide IgG-coated polystyrene balls. After washing the polystyrene balls to eliminate other biotinylated substances, the biotinylated peptides were eluted with HC1 and were reacted with anti-peptide Fab'-peroxidase conjugate. The complex formed was trapped onto streptavidin-coated polystyrene balls. Peroxidase activity bound to the polystyrene balls was assayed by fluorimetry. The detection limit of angiotensin I as a model peptide was 13 fg (10 amol)/tube and 0.8 ng/l of plasma, which was 80 to 480-fold lower than those previously reported by competitive radioimmunoassay and competitive enzyme immunoassay. And other peptides could also be measured more sensitively by the present noncompetitive enzyme immunoassay method than by competitive immunoassays.

Abstract
The production of nine monoclonal antibodies to human atrial natriuretic factor (ANF 1-28) is described. All possible combinations of two antibodies failed to reveal any which could simultaneously bind ANF. Studies with ANF analogues and the antibodies having the three highest affinity values (KD = 5, 25 and 21 pM) indicated that the antibodies are directed to the central portion of the antigen molecule. The highest affinity antibody was able to replace polyclonal antisera in the radioimmunoassay of ANF in extracts of plasma.

Abstract
This report has reviewed some of the cardiovascular aspects of ANP. The emergence of the heart as an endocrine organ requires that numerous questions be asked with regard to the importance of ANP to anesthesia and surgery. It is clear that the interaction of the hormone with other vasoactive compounds, including anesthetic agents, requires further elucidation. The accumulation of more information regarding the regulation of ANP and its cardiovascular setting will define its role in hemodynamic homeostasis in the acute clinical setting. Questions of specific interest to the anesthesiologist that require elucidation are: (1) Does the presence of abnormal ANP levels, associated with specific disease states, affect perioperative cardiovascular function? (2) Do cardiac surgery and CPB affect ANP-adrenergic interaction? (3) What is the relationship among blood volume, blood pressure, cation metabolism, and the ANP-renin-angiotensin system in perioperative patients? (4) What is the role of ANP as a therapeutic modality in surgical patients?
