Abstract
Atrial, brain, and C-type natriuretic peptides of the atrial natriuret ic peptide family are present in adrenal chromaffin cells, and are sec reted with catecholamines by exocytosis. These peptides modulate the p hysiological functions of the cells such as synthesis and secretion of catecholamines in an autocrine manner interacting with natriuretic pe ptide receptors.
