Hypothesis-generating in primates; should not yet inform human cardiorenal therapy with NEP inhibitors.
Does sodium loading enhance the natriuretic response to ANP and NEP inhibitors in conscious monkeys?
Sodium loading enhances the natriuretic activity of hANP and NEP inhibitors in conscious monkeys, mediated partly by increased ANP delivery to distal renal tubules.
Seymour et al. (1994) studied this question.
