BNP effect on ANP, NPR-1, AQP1, and AQP5 expression.BEAS-2B cells were treated with 0.01 nM BNP for 24 h. Histograms show (a) ANP, (b) NPR-1, (c) AQP1, and (d) AQP5 gene expression at mRNA level. All histograms indicate of three different cultures each one tested in quadruplicate and expressed as percentage of control ( versus untreated cells).
