Adrenomedullin (ADM) has been recognized as a multipotent multifunctional peptide. To explore the pathophysiological roles of ADM in insulin resistance (IR), we studied the changes in ADM mRNA level in the myocardium and vessels and the effect of ADM supplementation on rats with IR induced by fructose feeding. Rats were fed 4% fructose in drinking water for 8 weeks, and ADM was administered subcutaneously...
Adrenomedullin (ADM) is a multifunctional peptide regulating cardiovascular homeostasis. We studied the role of ADM in the pathogenesis of atherosclerosis by investigating changes in ADM and its receptors – calcitonin receptor-like receptor (CRLR) and receptor activity-modifying proteins (RAMPs) – in aorta of apoE−/− mice and the effect of exogenous ADM administration. ApoE−/− mice were fed an atherogenic...
In this work we aimed to observe (1) the changes in adrenomedullin (AM) and its receptor system – calcitonin receptor-like receptor (CRLR) and receptor activity modifying proteins (RAMPs) – in myocardial ischemic injury and (2) the response of injuried myocardia to AM and the phosphorylation of Akt to illustrate the protective mechanism of AM in ischemic myocardia. Male SD rats were subcutaneously...
Adrenomedullin (ADM) is a potent vasodilatory peptide. It regulates blood pressure by increasing cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) and guanosine-3′,5′-monophosphate (cGMP). We sought to investigate the effect of ADM on heme oxygenase-1 (HO-1) gene expression and cGMP formation in cultured rat vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs). ADM treatment, 10 −9 and 10 −8 mol/L, increased...
