The acidic protein chromogranin A (CgA) is the precursor of several regulatory peptides
generated by specific proteolytic processes. Human recombinant CgA NH2-terminal …

Chromogranin A (CGA), produced by human and rat myocardium, generates several
biologically active peptides processed at specific proteolytic cleavage sites. A highly …

In this study we tested the hypothesis that vasostatins could act as myocardial modulators in
the mammalian heart. Using the Langendorff–perfused rat heart, the cardiac effects of the …

Chromogranin A (CgA) is the major soluble protein co-stored and co-released with
catecholamines (CAs) from secretory vesicles in the adrenal medulla chromaffin cells …

Chromogranin A (CgA) is produced by cells of the sympathoadrenal system and by human
ventricular myocardium. In the clinical setting CgA has been mainly used as a marker of …

Abstract Aims High chromogranin-A (CgA) levels were observed in patients with heart failure
but its source remained uncertain. We evaluated whether CgA is produced by myocardium …

Cytoskeleton scaffold in cardiac myocytes provides structural support and
compartmentalization of intracellular components. It is implicated in cardiac pathologies …

The involvement of Chromogranin A (CgA) in the cardiovascular function regulation is
attributed to its function as a prohormone. Several studies indicated that CgA-derived …

Plasma chromogranin-A (CgA) concentrations correlate with severe cardiovascular
diseases, whereas CgA-derived vasostatin-I and catestatin elicit cardiosuppression via an …

A range of inflammatory conditions is associated with pathologically high levels of circulating
chromogranin A (CgA). This prohormone belongs to the family of uniquely acidic proteins co …
