Type  MGI:General Description  atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) or B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) half-maximally relaxed KCl-precontracted aortic rings in wild-type mice at ~24 nM, but failed to relax aortas in mutant mice, even at micromolar concentrations in contrast, C-type natriuretic peptide (CNP) caused half-maximal relaxation at 335 and 146 nM in aortas from either wild-type or null mice, respectively (no significant difference)
