Atrial natriuretic factor (ANF), also known as Atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP), NPPA or PND, is a powerful vasodilator, and a protein (polypeptide) hormone secreted by heart muscle cells. This gene is mapped to 1p36.22. It is involved in the homeostatic control of body water, sodium, potassium and fat (adipose tissue). ANF is released by muscle cells in the upper chambers (atria) of the heart (atrial myocytes) in response to high blood volume. It acts to reduce the water, sodium and adipose loads on the circulatory system, thereby reducing blood pressure. ANF has exactly the opposite function of the aldosterone secreted by the zona glomerulosa in regard to its effect on sodium in the kidney--that is, aldosterone stimulates sodium retention and it generates sodium loss.
Optimal dilution of the ANF antibody should be determined by the researcher.
Mouse ANP/ANF recombinant protein (amino acids N25-R122) was used as the immunogen for the ANF antibody.
After reconstitution, the ANF antibody can be stored for up to one month at 4oC. For long-term, aliquot and store at -20oC. Avoid repeated freezing and thawing.
