CAS Number: 88898-17-3 Molecular Weight: 3062.5 Salt Form: TFA Purity: >96% Sequence (3-letter): Ser-Leu-Arg-Arg-Ser-Ser-Cys-Phe-Gly-Gly-Arg-Ile-Asp-Arg-Ile-Gly-Ala-Gln-Ser-Gly-Leu-Gly-Cys-Asn-Ser-Phe-Arg-Tyr-OH [Cys7-Cys23] Sequence (1-letter): SLRRSSCFGGRIDRIGAQSGLGCNSFRY-OH Storage: -20 ?C or below Atrial Natriuretic Peptide (ANP) is a cardiovascular hormone which is synthesized in cardiac muscular cells. It is released in response to stretching of atrial walls, Endothelin, and stimulation of ?-adrenoreceptors. ANP increases renal sodium excretion resulting in decreased expanded extracellular fluid volume (ECF). ANP is degraded by neutral endopeptidase (NEP). This is the major circulating form of ANP in rats.
