Intended Uses: This ANP ELISA kit is a 1.5 hour solid-phase ELISA designed for the quantitative determination of Rat ANP. This ELISA kit for research use only, not for therapeutic or diagnostic applications!. Principle of the Assay: ANP ELISA kit applies the quantitative sandwich enzyme immunoassay technique. The microtiter plate has been pre-coated with a monoclonal antibody specific for ANP. Standards or samples are then added to the microtiter plate wells and ANP if present, will bind to the antibody pre-coated wells. In order to quantitatively determine the amount of ANP present in the sample, a standardized preparation of horseradish peroxidase (HRP)-conjugated polyclonal antibody, specific for ANP are added to each well to "sandwich" the ANP immobilized on the plate. The microtiter plate undergoes incubation, and then the wells are thoroughly washed to remove all unbound components. Next, substrate solutions are added to each well. The enzyme (HRP) and substrate are allowed to react over a short incubation period. Only those wells that contain ANP and enzyme-conjugated antibody will exhibit a change in color. The enzyme-substrate reaction is terminated by addition of a sulphuric acid solution and the color change is measured spectrophotometrically at a wavelength of 450 nm. A standard curve is plotted relating the intensity of the color (O.D.) to the concentration of standards. The ANP concentration in each sample is interpolated from this standard curve.

The protein encoded by this gene belongs to the natriuretic peptide family. Natriuretic peptides are implicated in the control of extracellular fluid volume and electrolyte homeostasis. This protein is synthesized as a large precursor (containing a signal peptide), which is processed to release a peptide from the N-terminus with similarity to vasoactive peptide, cardiodilatin, and another peptide from the C-terminus with natriuretic-diuretic activity. Mutations in this gene have been associated with atrial fibrillation familial type 6. [provided by RefSeq, Sep 2009]

NPPA: Hormone playing a key role in cardiovascular homeostasis through regulation of natriuresis, diuresis, and vasodilation. Also plays a role in female pregnancy by promoting trophoblast invasion and spiral artery remodeling in uterus. Specifically binds and stimulates the cGMP production of the NPR1 receptor. Binds the clearance receptor NPR3. Defects in NPPA are the cause of familial atrial fibrillation type 6 (ATFB6). Atrial fibrillation is a common disorder of cardiac rhythm that is hereditary in a small subgroup of patients. It is characterized by disorganized atrial electrical activity, progressive deterioration of atrial electromechanical function and ineffective pumping of blood into the ventricles. It can be associated with palpitations, syncope, thromboembolic stroke, and congestive heart failure. Belongs to the natriuretic peptide family. Protein type: Hormone; Secreted, signal peptide; Secreted. Chromosomal Location of Human Ortholog: 1p36.21. Cellular Component: extracellular space; mast cell granule; perinuclear region of cytoplasm; extracellular region; nucleus. Molecular Function: neuropeptide hormone activity; peptide hormone receptor binding; receptor binding. Biological Process: cardiac muscle hypertrophy; cGMP biosynthetic process; transcription initiation from RNA polymerase II promoter; negative regulation of systemic arterial blood pressure; positive regulation of heart rate; female pregnancy; response to insulin stimulus; neuropeptide signaling pathway; regulation of blood pressure; receptor guanylyl cyclase signaling pathway; response to hypoxia; gene expression; negative regulation of cell growth; regulation of blood vessel size.
