Descriptor péptido natriurético de tipo C
Entry term(s) péptido natriurético tipo C
Scope note: PÉPTIDO de 22 aminoácidos, derivado principalmente de las células del ENDOTELIO VASCULAR. También se encuentra en el ENCÉFALO, las glándulas endocrinas principales y otros tejidos. Su estructura es homóloga a la del FACTOR NATRIURÉTICO AURICULAR. Tiene una acción relajante vascular, por lo que es importante en la regulación del tono vascular y del flujo sanguíneo. Se han identificado algunas formas con alto peso molecular que contienen los 22 aminoácidos.

Scope note: A PEPTIDE of 22 amino acids, derived mainly from cells of VASCULAR ENDOTHELIUM. It is also found in the BRAIN, major endocrine glands, and other tissues. It shares structural homology with ATRIAL NATRIURETIC FACTOR. It has vasorelaxant activity thus is important in the regulation of vascular tone and blood flow. Several high molecular weight forms containing the 22 amino acids have been identified.
