Processing of pro-brain natriuretic peptide is suppressed by O-glycosylation in the region close to the cleavage siteAlexander G Semenov
HyTest Ltd, Turku, Finland
Clin Chem 55:489-98. 2009..The study of proBNP processing mechanisms is important, because processing impairments could be associated with the development of heart failure (HF)...
Processing of pro-B-type natriuretic peptide: furin and corin as candidate convertasesAlexander G Semenov
HyTest Ltd, Turku, Finland
Clin Chem 56:1166-76. 2010..We investigated the role of 2 candidate convertases, furin and corin, in human proBNP processing...
Biochemistry of the human B-type natriuretic peptide precursor and molecular aspects of its processingAlexander G Semenov
HyTest Ltd, Turku, Finland
Clin Chim Acta 412:850-60. 2011..The aim of the present review is to summarize the available data in the field of human proBNP maturation and processing and to discuss potential clinical implications...
Human pro-B-type natriuretic peptide is processed in the circulation in a rat modelAlexander G Semenov
HyTest Ltd, Turku, Finland
Clin Chem 57:883-90. 2011..The goals of the present study were to examine whether processing of proBNP takes place in the circulation and to evaluate the clearance rate of proBNP and proBNP-derived peptides...
Immunodetection of glycosylated NT-proBNP circulating in human bloodKarina R Seferian
HyTest Ltd, Turku, Finland
Clin Chem 54:866-73. 2008..Recently it has been shown that proBNP is O-glycosylated in human blood. The goal of this study was to map sites on the NT-proBNP molecule that should be recognized by antibodies used in optimal NT-proBNP assays...
Novel immunoassay for quantification of brain natriuretic peptide and its precursor in human bloodNatalia N Tamm
HyTest Ltd, Turku, Finland
Clin Chem 54:1511-8. 2008..The purpose of our study was to develop a sandwich immunoassay for the precise quantification of BNP and BNP precursor (proBNP) in human blood that is not susceptible to proteolysis...
Measurement of B-type natriuretic peptide by two assays utilizing antibodies with different epitope specificityNatalia N Tamm
HyTest Ltd, Intelligate, 6th Floor, Joukahaisenkatu 6, 20520 Turku, Finland
Clin Biochem 44:257-9. 2011..To compare plasma BNP values determined by a conventional-type and a novel-type of BNP assays...
The brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) precursor is the major immunoreactive form of BNP in patients with heart failureKarina R Seferian
HyTest Ltd, Turku, Finland
Clin Chem 53:866-73. 2007..It remains unclear which forms of these peptides circulate in blood and which forms are measured by assays for these natriuretic peptides...
