BACKGROUND: Alpha-human atrial natriuretic peptide (hANP) reportedly increases in premature infants with patent ductus arteriosus (PDA).
OBJECTIVES: To clarify a possible hANP effect to reopen the postnatal ductus, we studied in vivo reopening of the postnatal DA by a recombinant hANP, carperitide, in rats.
METHODS: Near-term rat pups were incubated at 33 degrees C following caesarean section. The inner diameter of the ductus was measured with a microscope and a micrometer following rapid whole-body freezing. The DA constricted quickly after birth, and the inner diameter was 0.80 and 0.08 mm at 0 min (fetal state) and 60 min after birth. hANP concentration in the pup blood and the ductus-dilating effect of hANP were studied by subcutaneous injection of hANP at 60 min after birth, and by measurement 7, 15, 30 and 60 min later.
RESULTS: The peak hANP concentration was 790 pg/ml at 7 min with 1 mg/kg, which is similar to the level seen in preterm infants with symptomatic PDA. hANP dilated the postnatal ductus dose dependently and maximally at 7 min after injection. hANP dilated the postnatal constricted ductus completely to 0.79 mm in diameter with a large dose (10 mg/kg) and to 0.55 mm with 1 mg/kg.
CONCLUSIONS: hANP reopens the constricted postnatal DA dose dependently in rats. The increased hANP, accompanying premature PDA, may delay closure of the DA.
