    Abstract

    C-type natriuretic peptide (CNP) is a recent addition to the family of natriuretic peptides which includes atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) and brain natriuretic peptide (BNP). Whilst the levels of ANP and BNP are increased in conditions such as congestive heart failure and cor pulmonale, abnormal levels of CNP in these conditions have not been reported.
