Corin in clinical laboratory diagnostics

Abstract: Corin is a transmembrane serine protease identified in the heart, where it converts natriuretic peptides from inactive precursors to mature active forms. Studies in animal models and patients with hypertension and heart disease demonstrate that corin is critical in maintaining normal blood pressure and cardiac function. Like many proteolytic enzymes, corin expression and activity are regulated. Cell biology experiments indicate that transcriptional control, intracellular protein trafficking, cell surface targe… Show more

“…Soluble corin in the circulation was measured by the ELISA assays in most studies. 8,[14][15][16] In this study, we also used commercially ELISA assays to measure the serum soluble corin for all participants. The range of serum corin (373.4-2833.3 pg/mL) detected in nonhypertensive individuals in our controls was similar to that (296-2590 pg/mL) in the previous report.…”

“…Corin antigen and activity have been detected in human blood (43)(44)(45)(46). Studies indicate that the levels of plasma soluble corin and activity are significantly lower in patients with hypertension and heart failure (43,47,48), suggesting that the reduced corin activity may contribute to hypertensive disease.…”

“…Corin, a type transmembrane serine protease that primarily expressed in cardiomyocytes, has been identified as physiological natriuretic peptides convertase [6,7]. To literature, corin levels were decreased in some cardiovascular diseases, e.g.…”
