1 This review will outline the structure, expression and vascular actions of natriuretic peptides and their endogenous receptors and highlight recent work that has revealed important interactions between the cyclic GMP producing particulate and soluble guanylate cyclases, thereby linking the cardiovascular actions of natriuretic peptides and nitric oxide, and a role for CNP as an endothelium-derived hyperpolarising factor (EDHF). edhf 5'-nucleotidase, cytosolic II Homo sapiens
