General description

Adrenomedullin (ADM) human comprises of 52 amino acids and has amine group in the C-terminal tyrosine residue. It also has a N-terminal ring structure and belongs to calcitonin peptide family. ADM has vasodilatory function and is mapped to human chromosome 11p15.4. Adrenomedullin is highly expressed in endothelial cells. Adrenomedullin controls a majority of cellular processes using cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP) as a messenger. It interacts with calcitonin receptor-like receptor (CRLR) and receptor activity modifying protein 2 (RAMP2). ADM contributes to invasion activity in brain tumor cell lines. ADM signalling plays a key role in tumor progression, especially in acute myeloid leukemia.

Application

Adrenomedullin 52 human has been used in tube formation assay in human umbilical vein endothelial cells (HUVECs).

Biochem/physiol Actions

Peptide elicits potent hypotensive effect, comparable to calcitonin gene-related peptide. Plays a key role in regulating endometrial angiogenesis.

Adrenomedullin (ADM) is a 52-amino acid peptide with a variety of physiologic functions such as immunomodulating activity, direct bactericidal activity, maintenance of renal homeostasis, and vasodilatory activity. Midregional proADM (MR-proADM) is derived from a larger 185-amino acid precursor peptide, prepro-adrenomedulin

In patients with community-acquired pneumonia (CAP), blood biomarkers can help to substantially improve individual decisions involving initiation, (de-)intensification, and cessation of antibiotics, and initial risk stratification, site-of-care assignment (outpatient versus ward versus ICU), and discharge. To illustrate these processes, this
