- Natriuretic and diuretic pathway characterization
- Cardiac remodeling and hypertrophy models
Mechanism of action
Atriopeptin III (rat) sits within the Cardiovascular research class (CPC reference ATPE-003). Cardiovascular peptides act on GPCRs and receptor systems in vascular smooth muscle, endothelium, and cardiac myocytes — modulating vasoconstriction, natriuresis, RAAS signaling, or ionotropic responses. Effects are typically measured in isolated vessel, Langendorff heart, or receptor-transfected cell assays.</ Investigators typically incorporate Atriopeptin III (rat) as a reference standard, tool ligand, or substrate in the assay contexts listed above. Radioligand-binding, IP-1 / cAMP HTRF, and organ-bath tension recordings are the standard readouts.
Frequently asked questions
What is Atriopeptin III (rat)?
Atriopeptin III (rat) (CPC catalog code ATPE-003) is a synthetic cardiovascular research peptide in the cardiovascular category. It is provided as a lyophilized ~1 mg vial for in-vitro research use only.
What is Atriopeptin III (rat) studied for?
Published and internal research programs use Atriopeptin III (rat) as a reference standard in cardiovascular workflows — for example, vascular reactivity in aortic ring and mesenteric bed preparations and renin–angiotensin–aldosterone system (raas) mechanistic studies. Human clinical evidence is not established.
Is Atriopeptin III (rat) FDA-approved for human use?
No. Atriopeptin III (rat) is a research-grade reference peptide and is not approved by the FDA or any national regulator for human or veterinary therapeutic use. It is offered exclusively for in-vitro laboratory research and does not ship to the United States for consumer use.
How is Atriopeptin III (rat) typically used in the lab?
In a cardiovascular workflow, Atriopeptin III (rat) is reconstituted in sterile buffer or DMSO (solubility-dependent) and applied in the researcher's chosen assay format. Radioligand-binding, IP-1 / cAMP HTRF, and organ-bath tension recordings are the standard readouts.
How should Atriopeptin III (rat) be stored?
Stable lyophilized at −20 °C for ≥24 months. Reconstitute in normal saline or PBS. Follow your institution's standard operating procedures for handling synthetic peptides.
Where does the Atriopeptin III (rat) product page point to?
This kindr reference page mirrors CPC Scientific's catalog metadata for ATPE-003. The upstream reference sheet — including sequence, purity, MW, and application notes where published — is linked from the buy panel. All orders placed on kindr Peptides ship internationally under research-use terms only.
What quality specifications apply to Atriopeptin III (rat)?
Research-grade peptides in the CPC catalog are synthesized by solid-phase peptide synthesis (SPPS), purified by preparative RP-HPLC, and characterized by analytical HPLC and mass spectrometry. Typical purity is ≥95%; certificate of analysis is available on request.
