TNF-α Regulates Natriuretic Peptides and Aquaporins in Human Bronchial Epithelial Cells BEAS-2B by Letizia Mezzasoma, Lucio Cagini, Cinzia Antognelli, Francesco Puma, Eugenio Pacifico, Vincenzo Nicola Talesa

“…In particular, we found that TNF-α induced a decrease of arial natriuretic peptide, natriuretic peptide receptor-1, aquaporin-1 and aquaporin-5 and an increase of brain natriuretic peptide with a different involvement of nuclear factor-κB and mitogen-activated protein kinases signaling pathway activation. Moreover, the observed changes in NPs expression, demonstrate inflammation as an additional cause of brain natriuretic peptide elevation, adding an important piece of information in the novel area of study regarding NPs and inflammation. …”
