No immediate clinical implications; leaves open ANP signaling in human ovarian physiology.
Jolanta Gutkowska (1993) studied this question. Atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP) system characterization was evaluated on ANP content, synthesis, and receptor characterization. The atrial natriuretic peptide system, including local synthesis and high-affinity guanylate cyclase-coupled R1 receptors, is present in rat ovaries and enhances cGMP accumulation.
