Human cardiac fibroblasts express B-type natriuretic peptide: fluvastatin ameliorates its up-regulation by interleukin-1α, tumour necrosis factor-α and transforming growth factor-β
B-type natriuretic peptide (BNP) is a cardiac hormone, which plays a major role in body fluid and cardiovascular homeostasis. Produced by cardiac ventricles, its expression is highly regulated by various mediators. Canine cardiac fibroblasts have been identified as a source of BNP. Cardiac fibroblas...
