1412 Circulation Research May 10, 2019 of course, in humans with different types of renal dysfunction. Finally, the authors carefully studied the effects of their designer NP on acute renal physiology, but the effects on longerterm kidney function remain unclear. Future investigations will hopefully answer these clinically relevant questions. Although this study focused on renal function in a preclinical surgical model, the findings have important cardiovascular implications. Renal dysfunction and volume overload remain major consequences of heart failure. However, conventional strategies to reduce volume overload with diuretics often prove inadequate or ultimately contribute to further renal dysfunction, one form of a spectrum of conditions known as cardiorenal syndrome. 10 Alternative strategies using synthetic NPs like nesiritide to improve cardiac output and thus renal perfusion in heart failure frequently induce limiting hypotension, 6 and have not improved outcomes in this condition. Thus, it will be informative to evaluate the effects of CRRL269, and other innovative NPs, as potentially hemodynamically neutral treatments of renal dysfunction and volume overload in the setting of heart failure. Finally, the authors demonstrated that CRRL269 augments cGMP not only in renal tissue but also in the plasma and urine. Other NP-modulating drugs, like neprilysin inhibitors, also appear to increase extracellular cGMP. 11 Why does cGMP, which functions as an intracellular second messenger, become regulated in the extracellular space, and what might be the clinical and biological significance of this? In the meantime, the current study represents an important step in parsing out the biological effects of NPs and downstream cGMP-PKG signaling. And, this study supports the greater concept that understanding the basic biology underlying physiological processes can lead directly to novel therapeutic strategies for patients with cardiovascular (and cardiorenal) disease.
