We have established optimal culture conditions for growing well-differentiated atrial myocytes from newborn rats. These myocytes show the morphological features of myocytes in intact atria; including perinuclear endocrine storage granules, contractile apparatus and numerous mitochondria. The cells synthesise, store and secrete immunoreactive ANP. Stored ANP is of similar molecular weight to pro-ANP (1-126); secreted ANP is the active form ANP (99-126) but processing appears to take place slowly after secretion. ANP secretion is stimulated by endothelin. Synthesis and secretion of ANP are markedly reduced by the beta-adrenergic agonist isoproterenol, and by forskolin.
