Atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP),is a polypeptide hormone involved in the homeostatic control of body water, sodium, and adiposity.
It is released by atrial myocytes, muscle cells in the atria of the heart, 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 is a 28aa peptide with a 17aa ring in the middle of the molecule.
The ring is formed by a disulfide bond between two cysteine residues at positions 7 and 23.
ANP is closely related to BNP and CNP which all share the same amino acid ring.
ANP was discovered in 1981 by a team in Ottawa led by Adolfo J.
de Bold after they made the seminal observation that injection of atrial (but not ventricular) tissue extracts into rats caused copious natriuresis.
