The distribution and nature of natriuretic peptide receptors (NPR) in the gills of dogfish, Squalus acanthias, were examined by tissue section autoradiography, competition analysis, protein electrophoresis, guanylate cyclase (GC) assays, and molecular cloning. Specific NP binding occurred on the gill filaments, but not on the interbranchial septum or gill arch. The binding was densest on the efferent edge of the gills. Higher resolution light-microscopic examination of emulsion-coated sections…

Characterisation of C-type natriuretic peptide receptors in the gill of dogfish Triakis scyllia.
TLDR
It is concluded that GC-uncoupled receptors in the dogfish gill have higher molecular mass than those of mammals and eel, and are present mostly as monomers even in non-reducing conditions, however, a small population of GC-coupled receptor is also present, as demonstrated by an increase in cGMP production.
Natriuretic peptide binding sites in the gills of the pouched lamprey Geotria australis
TLDR
NP binding sites in the adult gill and aorta are of an NPR-C/D type, whereas an additional GC-coupled site exists in juveniles, suggesting that NP-stimulated enhancement of cyclic GMP accumulation was found in juveniles in fresh water and more particularly in salt water.
Evidence of a guanylyl cyclase natriuretic peptide receptor in the gills of the new zealand hagfish Eptatretus cirrhatus (Class Agnatha).
TLDR
The presence of a natriuretic peptide guanylyl cyclase receptor in the gills of Hagfish Eptatretus cirrhatus is indicated that is similar to the natriuric peptide Guanyly l cyclase receptors in higher vertebrates.
Characterization of an endothelin ET(B) receptor in the gill of the dogfish shark Squalus acanthias.
TLDR
It is concluded that the shark gill expresses an ET(B) receptor with substantial homology to the mammalian receptor and that ET may play an important role in modulating such vital gill functions as gas exchange, ion regulation, acid-base balance, and excretion of nitrogen.

Comparative aspects of natriuretic peptide physiology in non-mammalian vertebrates: a review
TLDR
This review summarises the current knowledge of the natriuretic peptide system in non-mammalian vertebrates and discusses the physiological actions of the peptides.
The Natriuretic Peptides and their Receptors in the Brain of the Amphibian, Bufo marinus
TLDR
The data show that the toad brain contains an extensive natriuretic peptide system that could possibly interact with peptides such as arginine vasotocin and several other hormones involved in a number of different functions.
Effects of natriuretic peptides on the gill vasculature of a hagfish, Eptatretus cirrhatus
An isolated, perfused gill pouch preparation and myography were used to determine responses of the branchial vasculature of a hagfish to the mammalian natriuretic peptides, rANP and CNP. In the…

Localization and analysis of natriuretic peptide receptors in the gills of the toadfish, Opsanus beta (teleostei).
TLDR
The data show that the intrafilamental gill vasculature of toadfish contains a major population of natriuretic peptide receptors very similar to mammalian clearance receptors and a smaller population of receptors that are linked to a membrane-bound guanylate cyclase.
Localisation and characteristics of natriuretic peptide receptors in the gills of the Atlantic hagfish Myxine glutinosa (Agnatha).
TLDR
The existence of an ANP guanylate-cyclase-linked receptor similar to the mammalian NPR-A and an ANp/CNP receptor that may be similar to, although not structurally homologous with, the mammalianNPR-C clearance receptor is suggested.
C-type natriuretic peptide receptors and signaling in rectal gland of Squalus acanthias.
TLDR
The shark rectal gland was examined for natriuretic peptide receptors and the presence of guanylate cyclase-linked receptors and non-guanylatecyclase- linked receptors for CNP was determined and the importance of the integrity of the ring structure of CNP is underlined by the significant loss of affinity when the peptide ring is opened.
Identification of C-type natriuretic peptide in heart of spiny dogfish shark (Squalus acanthias).
TLDR
Elasmobranch CNP may represent a primordial form of ANP-like peptides that evolved as an adaptation to environmental osmoregulatory stress.
Cloning and expression of eel natriuretic-peptide receptor B and comparison with its mammalian counterparts.
TLDR
The CNP/NPR-B system appears to play an important role in their successful adaptation to salinity changes and identification of the amino acid residues or candidate regions important for the ligand-binding activity is identified.
Distribution and molecular forms of C-type natriuretic peptide in plasma and tissue of a dogfish, Triakis scyllia.
TLDR
In contrast to other species from teleosts to mammals thus far examined, the majority of CNP in dogfish plasma was prohormone instead of processed, mature forms.
Different molecular forms of C-type natriuretic peptide isolated from the brain and heart of an elasmobranch, Triakis scyllia.
TLDR
The data suggest that, in elasmobranchs, CNP is a primary hormone in the natriuretic peptide family, and also that C NP is processed differently in the brain and heart.
C-type natriuretic peptides stimulate chloride secretion in the rectal gland of Squalus acanthias.
TLDR
These studies suggest that sCNP may be the physiological regulator of rectal gland function and based on the order of potencies, position 4 in the NH2-terminal end and the ring itself are important for ligand effects.
Detection of C-type natriuretic peptide (CNP) transcript in the rat heart and immune organs.
TLDR
Using the polymerase chain reaction (PCR) technique instead of the less sensitive Northern blot hybridization, CNP-specific sequences have been detected in rat atria and ventricles of the heart as well as in organs of the immune system (thymus, spleen and lymph nodes).
C-type natriuretic peptides are potent dilators of shark vascular smooth muscle.
TLDR
The data suggest that CNP is released from the dogfish shark heart and is a circulating hormone with potent vasodilatory effects, in sharp contrast to the apparent role of CNP predominantly as a brain neuropeptide in mammals.
