7. NPR2 is involved in FSH-mediated oocyte meiotic resumption, and this process is associated with the EGFR and MAPK3/1 signaling pathways.

8. NPR2 dephosphorylation in the mural granulosa cells is essential for the normal progression of meiosis in response to LH and EGF receptor activation.

9. Npr2 is necessary for the precise spatial organization typical of central auditory circuits, but signals are still transmitted with normal timing, and that mutant mice can hear even with these deficits.

10. Npr2 is expressed in hard calluses of wild-type mice, suggesting a possible role of CNP signaling in fracture repair, especially in bone remodeling stage.

11. Data, including data from mutant mice strain Npr2(slw/slw), suggest that Npr2 is critical for fertility but role of Npr2 may be more involved in penile function rather than involved in spermatogenesis.

13. GATA2 and Lmo2 cooperatively regulate VEGF-induced angiogenesis and lymphangiogenesis via NRP2.

14. Data suggest that epidermal growth factor (Egf)/Egf receptor signaling in cumulus cells (CC) down-regulates Npr2, decreases cGMP, elevates calcium, and induces meiotic resumption/oogenesis in cultured CC-oocyte complexes (in induced meiotic arrest).

15. CNP/NPR2 signaling is essential for oocyte meiotic arrest in early antral follicles and activated LH/amphiregulin/EGFR signaling pathway suppresses this signal by downregulating Nppc expression.

16. NPPC/NPR2 signaling is essential for oocyte meiotic arrest and cumulus oophorus formation, which affects female fertility through the production of oocytes with developmental capacity.

17. Cellular exposure to Go6976 reduced basal and natriuretic peptide-dependent, but not detergent-dependent, GC-A and GC-B activity.

18. These observations suggest that the CNP/GC-B system participates in regulation of adipogenesis, particularly at an early stage in the process.

19. Data suggest that the gastrointestinal tract dysfunction phenotype of slw/slw mice is because of a C-type natriuretic peptide/natriuretic peptide receptor B-signaling defect caused by an Npr2 mutation.

20. findings show mural granulosa cells express Nppc mRNA; cumulus cells surrounding oocytes express mRNA of NPPC receptor NPR2; granulosa cell ligand NPPC and receptor NPR2 in cumulus cells prevent precocious meiotic maturation

1. It was the aim to investigate the expression of natriuretic peptide receptors NPR-A, NPR-B and NPR-C during adipocyte differentiation (AD), upon stimulation with fatty acids (FA), and in murine and human adipose tissue depots.

2. homozygous mutations in the NPR2 gene underlying variable phenotypes of Acromesomelic dysplasia, type Maroteaux

3. These results of the distinct presence of NPRA and NPRBpositive cells in unstable plaques underlying acute myocardial infarction suggested that natriuretic peptides serve a role in regulating plaque instability in humans.

4. Atenolol treatment normalized the altered expression of Npr1 and Npr2 genes.

5. Data suggest mutations in NPR2 in patients with skeletal overgrowth alter conformation: A488P/R655C missense mutations yield conformation mimicking allosterically activated NPR2; A488P mutation sets phosphorylation as requirement for CNP-dependent activation; R655C mutation abrogates need for phosphorylation; ATP analog inhibits mutants. (NPR2 = atrial natriuretic factor receptor B; CNP = C-type natriuretic peptide)

6. in 4 Indian families with acromesomelic dysplasia, type Maroteaux, 4 homozygous mutations in four different families were identified; these include 3 novel mutations including a deletion frameshift mutation (p.Cys586Ter), one nonsense mutation (p.Arg479Ter), one missense mutation (p.Val187Asp) and one reported missense mutation (p.Tyr338Cys)

7. Heterozygous mutation in NPR2 gene is associated with short stature.

8. Mutations in three genes (GDF5, NPR2, BMPR1B) have been reported to cause different forms of acromesomelic dysplasia

9. IL1R2 hypomethylation and androgen receptor hypermethylation may constitute an important determinant of disease severity, whereas NPR2 hypomethylation and SP140 hypermethylation may provide a biomarker for vulnerability to excessive daytime sleepiness in Obstructive Sleep Apnea

10. Loss-of-function mutations of the NPR2 gene is associated with acromesomelic dysplasia, type maroteaux.
