Terminology The atrial factor, now known to be a polypeptide, has variously been termed atrial natriuretic factor (8), atrial natriuretic polypeptide (9), cardionatrin (10), atriopeptin (11), auriculin (12), and atrin (13). Furthermore, several natriuretic peptides ofdifferent molecular weights have been isolated from atria. The var-ious atrial peptides possessing natriuretic activity share a common amino acid sequence, with differences emerging only in the length ofNH2-terminal and COGH-terminal extensions (Table I). For clarity, this review will refer to all ofthese peptides by the generic term atrin. The specific sequence for each distinct peptide will be indicated by subscripts, atrin, 28 serving as the reference moiety. When reference to a specific sequence is not intended or required, the general term atrin will be used.
