“…Brain natriuretic peptide (BNP) is a 32-amino-acid ringshaped polypeptide that increases the urinary excretion of water and sodium, relaxes blood vessels and inhibits sympathetic activity (3)(4)(5)(6)(7). Since its use as a drug for heart failure in 2001 (8), recombinant human brain natriuretic peptide (rhBNP) has been increasingly used for the treatment of AMI, accompanied by cardiac insufficiency.…”

“…Nijveldt et al (2008) reported that BNP was more strongly correlated with necrotic cardiac muscles than with ischemic cardiac muscles, and Grabowski et al (2007) reported that BNP was more informative than other clinical indexes, such as the Killip grade, TIMI risk points, etc. Mayr et al (2011) found that the NT-proBNP concentration was closely correlated with heart function and could accurately predict chronic MI size after 3 days of MI, and that the heart function of the patients could not recover if the NT-proBNP level was >1115 pg/mL. Mistry et al (2011) reported that the NT-proBNP plasma concentration showed a stronger correlation when AMI occurred within 3 months compared to only 3 days.…”

“…Some researchers have reported a correlation between the plasma concentration of BNP and myocardial infarct (MI) size in patients with acute myocardial infarction (AMI). Mayr et al (2011) and Mistry et al (2011) evaluated the correlation between BNP and MI size after 66 ± 8 h, 3 months, and 3 days from AMI occurrence, respectively. However, the stage at which BNP in AMI can best reflect the MI size is still under investigation.…”

“…Cardiac troponin measured with standard (3) and high-sensitive (4) assays has improved our abilities to define patients with acute coronary syndromes (5), estimate the amount of myocardial necrosis (3), predict functional impairment (6,7) and prognosis (8). Another well-established biomarker in acute coronary syndromes is NT-pro-BNP (9). Today these two biomarkers impact clinical decisions of cardiologist every day.…”
