CNP, but not ANP or BNP, Relax Human Isolated Subcutaneous Resistance Arteries by an Action Involving Cyclic GMP and BKCa Channels
Natriuretic peptides play an important role in sodium regulation and blood pressure (BP) control. We examined the effects of atrial natriuetic peptide (ANP), brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) and C-type natriuretic peptide (CNP) on human isolated resistance arteries and the mechanisms involved in vaso...
