Combined Neutral Endopeptidase and Angiotensin-Converting Enzyme Inhibition in Heart Failure: Role of Natriuretic Peptides and Angiotensin II

Miriam T. Rademaker , Christopher J. Charles , Eric A. Espiner +3 more

We examined for the first time the specific roles of angiotensin II and the natriuretic peptides during inhibition of angiotensin-converting enzyme (captopril, 25 mg bolus + 6 m...

Neutral Endopeptidase Inhibition: Augmented Atrial and Brain Natriuretic Peptide, Haemodynamic and Natriuretic Responses in Ovine Heart Failure

Miriam T. Rademaker , Christopher J. Charles , Eric A. Espiner +3 more

1. Atrial and brain natriuretic peptide are both circulating hormones subject to degradation by neutral endopeptidase 24.11. Whereas endogenous levels of atrial natriuretic pept...
