Abstract
⺠Corin is a transmembrane protease that processes natriuretic peptides. ⺠Corin is critical for maintaining normal blood pressure and cardiac function. ⺠Proteolytic shedding is an important mechanism in regulating corin activity. ⺠Soluble corin is detected in human blood and its levels are lower in patients with heart failure. ⺠Soluble corin may be used as a novel biomarker for heart failure.
