Ularitide
Ularitide (Urodilatin), natriuretic peptide, is a vasodilator. Ularitide binds to and activates renal receptors. Ularitide also regulates renal dopamine metabolism Ularitide can be used in the research of heart failure.

Biological Activity
Ularitide increases the amount of cyclic nucleotides and decreases the raise in permeability in HUVEC cells[2]. Ularitide (1 nM-1 μM, 15 min) reverses methacholine-evoked contraction in bovine bronchi[3]. Ularitide (1 μM, 0-300 s) increases cyclic GMP levels in the presence of phosphoramidon in bovine bronchi[3].
