Hypothesis-generating for BNP-preferring receptor subtypes in astrocytes; leaves open human CNS relevance.
BNP and ANP bind to the same receptors on mouse astrocytes with similar affinity, but BNP induces significantly greater cGMP production, suggesting the existence of receptor subtypes.
Yeung et al. (1991) studied this question.
