- 29 August 2003
The orphan receptor APJ and its recently identified endogenous ligand, apelin, are expressed in the heart. However, their importance in the human cardiovascular system is not known. This study shows… Expand
Cardiac hormones as diagnostic tools in heart failure.
- H. Ruskoaho
- Medicine
- Endocrine reviews
- 1 June 2003
In patients with heart failure, plasma levels of atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP), B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP), and the N-terminal fragments of their prohormones (N-ANP and N-BNP) are elevated,… Expand
Atrial natriuretic factor—a circulating hormone stimulated by volume loading

- Biology, Medicine
- Nature
- 21 March 1985
The cardiocytes of mammalian cardiac atria contain granules very similar to those in endocrine cells1,2. The number of these atrial granules is related directly to salt loading and blood volume3.… Expand
Evidence for cAMP-independent mechanisms mediating the effects of adrenomedullin, a new inotropic peptide.

- Medicine
- Circulation
- 24 March 1998
BACKGROUND
Adrenomedullin (ADM), a new vasorelaxing and natriuretic peptide, may function as an endogenous regulator of cardiac function, because ADM and its binding sites have been found in the… Expand
Mechanisms of atrial and brain natriuretic peptide release from rat ventricular myocardium: effect of stretching.

- Medicine
- Endocrinology
- 1 May 1993
Ventricular hypertrophy is characterized by augmentation of the synthesis and storage of atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) and brain natriuretic peptide (BNP). To evaluate in vitro the cellular… Expand
Cardiac fibrosis in myocardial infarction—from repair and remodeling to regeneration
- V. Talman, H. Ruskoaho
- Medicine
- Cell and Tissue Research
- 21 June 2016
AbstractIschemic cell death during a myocardial infarction leads to a multiphase reparative response in which the damaged tissue is replaced with a fibrotic scar produced by fibroblasts and… Expand
