Biological Activity
| This peptide corresponds to a bioactive fragment of the human prepro-ANF precursor, capable of activating natriuretic peptide receptors (primarily NPR-A), stimulating guanylyl cyclase activity, and increasing intracellular cGMP levels. It exhibits vasodilatory, natriuretic, and diuretic effects in appropriate bioassay systems. |

1.MECHANISM OF ACTION
The peptide acts primarily by binding to natriuretic peptide receptors, especially NPR‑A, which are membrane‑bound guanylyl cyclase‑coupled receptors. Ligand–receptor engagement stimulates intracellular guanylyl cyclase activity, leading to a rapid increase in cyclic GMP (cGMP) levels. Elevated cGMP activates cGMP‑dependent protein kinases, resulting in vasodilation, enhanced renal sodium and water excretion (natriuresis and diuresis), and suppression of the renin–angiotensin–aldosterone system. Through these integrated pathways, the peptide helps reduce vascular resistance, lower cardiac preload and afterload, and restore fluid‑electrolyte balance, thereby serving as a key modulator of cardiovascular and renal physiology.
2.PRODUCT INDICATIONS
This human prepro‑ANF (26‑55) peptide is indicated for research use only in preclinical investigations of natriuretic peptide biology, cardiovascular regulation, and related disorders. It is employed as a specific agonist in receptor‑binding assays, cGMP accumulation studies, and in vitro models of vascular relaxation and renal tubular transport. The peptide is also used in animal models to evaluate hemodynamic, natriuretic, and diuretic responses in conditions such as hypertension, heart failure, and volume overload. Furthermore, it serves as a reference standard for developing ANF‑based diagnostics or therapeutics. It is not intended for diagnostic, therapeutic, or clinical applications in humans or animals.
3.CLINICAL EFFICACY OF PRODUCT
As a research reagent, Prepro-Atrial Natriuretic Factor (26-55) (human) does not possess established clinical efficacy for therapeutic use in human patients. This synthetic peptide has not undergone clinical development or received regulatory approval for any medical indication. While studies using this peptide have contributed to the understanding of natriuretic peptide pathways and potential therapeutic targets for cardiovascular diseases, the product itself remains an investigational tool for basic and translational research. It has no proven clinical efficacy or safety profile in humans and is strictly intended for laboratory research applications.
