✦ Synopsis

Abstract

The atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP)‐system was examined in Rana esculenta lung with cytochemical and immunocytochemical methods. The results showed a cellular type that synthesizes the hormone and the presence of receptors in various components of the lung. The lung, therefore, produces ANP and at the same time is a target organ for the hormone. ANP may play an important physiological role in pulmonary function and in protecting against pulmonary edema.

Background. We studied serum N-terminal atrial natriuretic peptide (NT-ANP) in children during and after chemotherapy for cancer to determine its applicability in detecting cardiac dysfunction. Forty-three patients were receiving chemotherapy for malignancy. Forty-eight patients were off chemotherap
