Uses
Carperitide acetate (Atrial Natriuretic Peptide (ANP) (1-28), human, porcine acetate) is a 28-amino acid hormone, that is normally produced and secreted by the human heart in response to cardiac injury and mechanical stretch. Carperitide acetate inhibits endothelin-1 secretion in a dose-dependent way.
