Dietz, JR:

This Laboratory is studying a group of Cardiac Hormones called natriuretic peptides

because they are hormones secreted by the heart that increase the excretion of sodium (Na)

by the kidneys (uretic).

These hormones are part of a naturally occurring mechanism that is important in

regulating blood volume and blood pressure.

Salt Intake ( Blood Volume Expansion and Stretch of the Atria ( atrial natriuretic

peptide (ANP) Secretion.

ANP increases salt and water excretion to reduce blood volume and blood pressure.

ANP also directly dilates blood vessels which helps to lower blood pressure.

Work in this area over the past 20 years has already resulted in new drugs to treat

hypertension and heart failure.

ANP is normally degraded in the kidneys by an enzyme (NEP) which breaks its peptide ring

structure, making it inactive.

Drugs which inhibit NEP cause ANP in the plasma to increase, thus augmenting ANP s blood

pressure lowering capacity.
