DataSheet   

This ELISA kit is for quantification of ANP in hamster. This is a quick ELISA assay that reduces time to 50% compared to the conventional method, and the entire assay only takes 3 hours. This assay employs the quantitative sandwich enzyme immunoassay technique and uses biotin-streptavidin chemistry to improve the performance of the assays. An antibody specific for ANP has been pre-coated onto a microplate. Standards and samples are pipetted into the wells and any ANP present is bound by the immobilized antibody. After washing away any unbound substances, a detection antibody specific for ANP is added to the wells. Following wash to remove any unbound antibody reagent, a detection reagent is added. After intensive wash a substrate solution is added to the wells and color develops in proportion to the amount of ANP bound in the initial step. The color development is stopped, and the intensity of the color is measured.

Alternative names for ANP: Atrial natriuretic peptide, NPPA

Background: 

Atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) is a powerful vasodilator, and a protein hormone secreted by heart muscle cells. It is involved in the homeostatic control of body water, sodium, potassium and adipose tissue. It is released by atrial myocytes in response to high blood volume. ANP acts to reduce the water, sodium and adipose loads on the circulatory system, thereby reducing blood pressure. ANP has exactly the opposite function of the aldosterone secreted by the zona glomerulosa in regard to its effect on sodium in the kidney – that is, aldosterone stimulates sodium retention and ANP generates sodium loss.[1] In cardiac myocytes, ANP is made as a precursor form, i.e. prepro-ANP, a polypeptide of 151 amino acids.[2] After the signal peptide is removed in the endoplasmic reticulum, the 126-amino-acid pro-ANP is stored in the intracellular granules. When the cells are stimulated, pro-ANP is released and converted to the 28-amino-acid C-terminal mature ANP on the cell surface by the cardiac transmembrane serine protease corin.[3] ANP interacts with three receptors including guanylyl cyclase-A (NPR1), guanylyl cyclase-B (NPR2), natriuretic peptide clearance receptor (NPR3). The binding of ANP to its receptor causes the conversion of GTP to cGMP and raises intracellular cGMP. Receptor-agonist binding causes a reduction in blood volume and, therefore, a reduction in cardiac output and systemic blood pressure. Lipolysis is increased and renal sodium reabsorption is decreased. The overall effect of ANP on the body is to counter increases in blood pressure and volume caused by the renin-angiotensin system. ANP and related peptides are used as biomarkers for cardiovascular diseases such as stroke, coronary artery disease, myocardial infarction and heart failure.[4][5] [6]
