...Z. Averbukh; S. Berman; J. Weissgarten; M. Cohn; A. Golik; N. Cohen; U. Shaked; D. Modai Serial serum atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) determinations were performed in 15 uninephrectomized Charles River rats and in 15 sham-operated control animals during the 60 days following surgery. In a second...

...Z. Averbukh; S. Berman; J. Weissgarten; M. Cohn; A. Golik; N. Cohen; D. Modai We studied basal serum atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) levels and the response to acute salt loading in rats with different grades of functional renal mass reduction. The six groups of rats studied included 2 controls...

...-fos expression from the renal cortex and medulla using the method of Northern hybridization c-fos expression induced by 1 µg ( 1.6 × 10 -6 M) of atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) was also examined. The result was that the peak expression of c-fos mRNA was observed at approximately 10 min after Ang II...

... on erythropoietin (EPO) secretion. Serum EPO and atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) concentrations as well as plasma renin activity (PRA) were estimated in 18 patients with essential hypertension (EH) and in 9 healthy subjects (HS): before, after 2 h of WI and 2 h after discontinued WI. WI was followed...

... endopeptidase radioligand–binding site density in the kidneys of the SCH34826–treated animals compared to the placebo group (81.6±3.7 versus 214.5±4.2 dpm/mm 2 , p<0.01). This was associated with a marked increase in urinary atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) from 3,930±295 to 9,094±1,089 pg/24 h...
