Localization of Brain Natriuretic Peptide Immunoreactivity in Rat Spinal Cord
Brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) exerts its functions through natriuretic peptide 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 of the spinal cord. However, BNP expression...
