Background InformationAtrial natriuretic polypeptide, alpha (ANP), atrial natriuretic factor (ANF), or atriopeptin, is a protein (polypeptide) hormone secreted by heart muscle cells. It is involved in the homeostatic control of body water, sodium, potassium and fat (adiposity). It is released by muscle cells in the upper chambers (atria) of the heart (atrial myocytes), in response to high blood pressure. ANP acts to reduce the water, sodium and adipose loads on the circulatory system, thereby reducing blood pressure. ANP binds to a specific set of receptors - ANP receptors. Receptor-agonist binding causes a reduction in blood volume and therefore a reduction in cardiac output and systemic blood pressure. Lipolysis is increased and renal sodium reabsorption is decreased. The overall effect of ANP on the body is to counter increases in blood pressure and volume caused by the renin-angiotensin system (1).

UniProt Number
UniProt SummaryFUNCTION: A potent vasoactive substance which is thought to play a key role in cardiovascular homeostasis. Has a cGMP-stimulating activity.
SUBUNIT: Interacts with NPR3.
LOCATION: Secreted.
POLYMORPHISM: There are two different prepronatriodilatin alleles. One codes for 2 Arg residues at the C-terminus that are cleaved to form the mature peptide, while the other ends in a termination codon immediately after the last codon of the mature peptide.
SIMILARITY: Belongs to the natriuretic peptide family.
