General description

The BNP Enzyme Immunoassay (EIA) Kit is an in vitro quantitative assay for detecting BNP peptide based on the principle of Competitive Enzyme Immunoassay.

Immunogen

Brain Natriuretic Peptide, synthetic peptide

Application

For research use only. Not for use in diagnostic procedures.
Brain natriuretic peptide EIA Kit has been used to measure brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) secreted in human neonatal ventricular cardiomyocyte culture.

Biochem/physiol Actions

Brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) expressed in mammalian brain and atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) facilitates various physiological functions including regulation of blood pressure and cardiac remodeling. BNP acts as a potential biomarker of high left ventricular end-diastolic pressure in patients with symptomatic left ventricular (LV) dysfunction. Elevated expression of BNP is observed in acute myocardial infarction (AMI) patients. BNP is also implicated in several biological functions such as diuresis, natriureis, hypotensive action and inhibition of aldosterone secretion.

Background: Doxorubicin as an anti-cancer drug causes cardiotoxicity, limiting its tolerability and use. The mechanism of toxicity is due to free radical production and cardiomyocytes injury. This research evaluated Rheum turkestanicum (R.turkestanicum) extract against doxorubicin cardiotoxicity due to its considerable
