N-terminal pro-Brain Natriuretic Peptide. Brain natriuretic peptides BNP are produced initially as a 134 amino acid pre-pro-peptide, which is cleaved into proBNP as 108 amino acids. This precursor molecule is stored in secretary granules in myocytes. Upon release, proBNP is cleaved by a protease into N-terminal NT-proBNP a 76 amino acid, biologically-inert portion, and BNP which is biologically active. The highest concentrations of NT-proBNP and BNP are found in the left ventricular LV myocardium, but are also detectable in arterial tissue and the myocardium of the right ventricle. A significant body of evidence has developed to demonstrate that NT-proBNP and BNP levels correlate with diagnosis, clinical status, and prognosis in congestive heart failure CHF.
