Specifications
Target Information
Feline Natriuretic Peptides A (NPPA) is a hormone synthesized by cardiomyocytes, belonging to the natriuretic peptide family. It regulates extracellular fluid volume and electrolyte homeostasis to maintain cardiovascular balance. NPPA promotes natriuresis and diuresis and has vasodilatory effects to lower blood pressure. It also activates membrane-bound guanylyl cyclase to produce cGMP, regulating cardiac function. In cats, NPPA expression is closely related to cardiovascular diseases and can be used to assess cardiac function.
