Novel Antihypertension Mechanism of β-Glucan by Corin and ANP-Mediated Natriuresis in Mice

Many of the β-glucans are known to have antihypertensive activities, but, except for angiotensin-converting enzyme II inhibition, the underlying mechanisms remain unclear. Corin is an atrial natriuretic peptide (ANP)-converting enzyme. Activated corin cleaves pro-ANP to ANP, which regulates water–so...
