A peptide with cardiovascular functions
Brain natriuretic peptide is a cardiac neurohormone that is secreted by the left ventricle in response to an increase in wall stress [2]. BNP has emerged as an important cardiac neuro-hormone with multiple potential roles in the management of patients with cardiac dysfunction, Brain natriuretic peptide (1-32) (human) is the active part of BNP [3,4].
Brain natriuretic peptide (1-32) (human) regulates the production of major inflammatory molecules, such as reactive oxygen- and nitrogen species (ROS and RNS), leukotriene B(4) (LTB(4)), prostaglandin E(2) (PGE(2)); modulates the cytokines (TNF-alpha, IL-12 and IL-10) profile, and affects cell motility[1].
In a consecutive series of 200 patients referred for echocardiographic assessment of LV function , those with normal function had substantially lower Brain natriuretic peptide (1-32) (human) levels than those with LV (systolic, diastolic or combined) dysfunction. In this population with a very high prevalence of LV dysfunction (47.5%), a Brain natriuretic peptide (1-32) (human) of 75 pg/ml or more was highly accurate at identifying such patients. In this highly selected group, BNP-32 testing appears to be a very good screening tool[5].
When evaluated the utility of Brain natriuretic peptide (1-32) (human)-guided ACE inhibitor titration compared with clinically guided titration in a small randomized trial. Comprehensive hemodynamic assessment was performed at the study onset and after 8 weeks of treatment. At study end, the ACE inhibitor dose was significantly greater (p = 0.006) and heart rate was significantly reduced (p = 0.02) in the BNP-32 group compared with the clinically guided group[6].
The utility of Brain natriuretic peptide (1-32) (human) testing to screen for systolic or diastolic dysfunction was evaluated in a substudy of the Heart and Soul study. In this group of stable out-patients with known coronary disease, an elevated BNP-32 level (>100 pg/ml) was associated with both systolic and diastolic dysfunction[7].

脑利钠肽是一种心脏神经激素，由左心室响应壁应力增加而分泌[2]。 BNP 已成为一种重要的心脏神经激素，在心功能不全患者的管理中具有多种潜在作用，脑利钠肽 (1-32)（人）是 BNP 的活性部分 [3,4].
脑利钠肽 (1-32)（人类）调节主要炎症分子的产生，例如活性氧和氮类（ROS 和 RNS）、白三烯 B(4) (LTB(4))、前列腺素 E (2) (铂族元素(2));调节细胞因子（TNF-α、IL-12 和 IL-10）分布，并影响细胞运动[1]。
在连续 200 名接受超声心动图评估 LV 功能的患者中，功能正常的患者的脑利钠肽 (1-32)（人类）水平明显低于 LV（收缩、舒张或联合）功能障碍的患者。在这个 LV 功能障碍患病率非常高 (47.5%) 的人群中，75 pg/ml 或更高的脑利钠肽 (1-32)（人类）在识别此类患者时非常准确。在这个经过高度筛选的群体中，BNP-32 测试似乎是一种非常好的筛选工具[5]。
