Use of erythropoietin and derivatives for treating hypertension

TL;DR: In this paper, the authors found that rhEPO leads to a significant reduction in arterial blood pressure via nitric oxide signaling, and further disclosed that an EPO derivative, helix B surface peptide (HBSP), significantly reduces blood pressure, kidney damage and myocardial fibrosis in animal models of hypertension.

ANP differentially modulates marinobufagenin-induced sodium pump inhibition in kidney and aorta. Commentary

TL;DR: Assessment of effects of ANP on Na/K-ATPase phosphorylation and inhibition by an endogenous sodium pump ligand, marinobufagenin, in the aorta and renal medulla from male Sprague–Dawley rats suggests that α-1 Na/k-atPase inhibition by marinOBufagenIn in the kidney is enhanced via Na/ K- ATPaseosphorylation by ANP, whereas in theAorta
