    Endothelins, vasopressin, some cytokines, excess sodium or calcium in serum, activation of the sympathoadrenal system, and tachycardia are the stimulants of brain natriuretic peptide production. The rise of the natriuretic peptide level in cases of acute brain damage has a functionally adaptive nature, based on vasodilation, diuretic action peptide and ability to reduce sympathoadrenal system activity. ...we can suppose that the more severe the damage, the higher the stimulation of natriuretic peptide.
