Involvement of cytoplasmic calcium and protein kinases in the regulation of atrial natriuretic factor secretion by contraction rate and endothelin.

To characterize the effects of the cellular events associated with contraction on atrial natriuretic factor (ANF) secretion, primary neonatal rat atrial myocytes were electrically paced to contract while being monitored for ANF release, cytoplasmic …

Protein kinase C and calmodulin kinase are required for endothelin-stimulated atrial natriuretic factor secretion from primary atrial myocytes.

Endothelin (ET), a potent stimulator of atrial natriuretic factor (ANF) secretion in atrial myocyte cultures, has been hypothesized to act via the stimulation of protein kinase C (PKC). This study was carried out in order to determine if ET activates …
