Abstract
Atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) of atrial myocyte origin, has been shown to play a role in the diuresis, natriuresis, and antagonism of angiotensin and vasopressin. However, it is now apparent that in addition to the production of the peptide in the heart and in its role in fluid and electrolyte homeostasis, it is also produced in the central nervous system participating in the regulation of pituitary hormone secretion. Administration of ANP through both central and peripheral routes has been shown to inhibit secretion of luteinizing hormone (LH) in the gonadectomized rat model.
