Uses
Atriopeptin III (ANP 127-150) (rat), a 24-amino acid atrial peptide, is a potent vasodilator and natriuretic/diuretic agent. Atriopeptin III (rat) improves renal functions and decreases blood pressure in a ureter-obstructed rat kidney model. Atriopeptin III (rat) can be used for research of chronic renal failure[1].
