Abstract
Mammalian atria contain different peptides with potent diuretic, natriuretic, smooth muscle relaxing and blood pressure lowering properties. A preprohormone of these peptides is synthetized and stored in specific granules in atrial myocytes. Different peptides have been isolated, analyzed and in vitro synthetized. Their biological activity indicates a potential role in the regulation of volume and sodium homeostasis as well as in blood pressure regulation.
