Blood pressures and plasma atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) concentrations have been measured in venous and intracardiac sites in 11 patients (10 men and 1 woman) given cardiac transplants. The mean plasma ANP level was 214.4 pg.ml-1 in the superior vena cava and 281 pg.ml-1 in the right atrium. Thi
It is known that atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) is synthesized, stored and released from the myocytes of mammalian heart, but the role of cardiac autonomic nerves in triggering the release of ANP has not been fully assessed. We have therefore measured plasma ANP concentrations in the right atrium
