The possible mechanism of increased urinary C-peptide due to neprilysin inhibitors is investigated. Neprilysin inhibition blocks degradation of natriuretic peptides, and elicits a natriuretic and antihypertensive effect. Neprilysin inhibition might similarly block degradation of C-peptides in the kidney and thus increase the urinary C-peptide level.
正在研究肾素抑制剂导致尿 C 肽增加的可能机制。肾素抑制剂可阻止利钠肽的降解,并产生利钠和降压作用。肾素抑制剂可能同样阻止肾脏中 C 肽的降解,从而增加尿 C 肽水平。
