Native Rat Natriuretic Peptide B

• Cat.No.: Nppb-5459R
• Product Overview: Nppb is a 32 aapeptide secreted by the ventricles of the heart in response to excessive stretching of myocytes in the ventricles. A high concentration of thisprotein in the bloodstream is indicative of heart failure.

Specification

• Description: Native Rat Nppb, also known as BrainNatriuretic Peptide-32 (BNP32) is a member of the natriuretic peptide familyand is a secreted protein which functions as a cardiac hormone. The proteinundergoes two cleavage events, one within the cell and a second aftersecretion into the blood. The protein"s biological actions includenatriuresis, diuresis, vasorelaxation, inhibition of renin and aldosteronesecretion, and a key role in cardiovascular homeostasis.
