Plasma Atrial Natriuretic Peptide and its Relation to the Renin–Angiotensin–Aldosterone System in Patients with Chronic Renal Failure

To determine the relationship between plasma immunoreactive atrial natriuretic peptide (i-ANP) and renin–angiotensin–aldosterone system (RAAS), plasma i-ANP, plasma renin activity (PRA) and plasma aldosterone (PA) were assayed in 29 patients (19 hypertensive and 10 normotensive) with chronic renal f...

Zusammenfassung:To determine the relationship between plasma immunoreactive atrial natriuretic peptide (i-ANP) and renin–angiotensin–aldosterone system (RAAS), plasma i-ANP, plasma renin activity (PRA) and plasma aldosterone (PA) were assayed in 29 patients (19 hypertensive and 10 normotensive) with chronic renal failure (CRF), and in 10 healthy subjects. Hypertensive patients had higher i-ANP values than normotensive patients and controls (P
