Adrenomedullin (13-52) is a truncated form of adrenomedullin (1-52) . It induces nitric oxide-dependent relaxation of and inhibits release of angiotensin II and endothelin-1 from isolated rat aorta. In vivo, adrenomedullin (13-52) decreases mean arterial pressure (MAP) in spontaneously and renal hypertensive rats in a dose-dependent manner. Adrenomedullin (13-52) (10-3,000 ng per animal) reverses increases in lobar arterial pressure induced by U-46619 in a dose-dependent manner in cats but has no effect on basal lobar arterial pressure or systemic arterial pressure. It also potentiates inflammatory edema and neutrophil accumulation in rats.
Adrenomedullin (22-52) is a C-terminal fragment of adrenomedullin (1-52) . In vitro, adrenomedullin (22-52) reduces basal corticosterone production in a mixture of rat adrenocortical and adrenomedulllary cells. It also reverses increases in ACTH-stimulated corticosterone production induced by adrenomedullin (1-52). Adrenomedulin (22-52) (0.5 and 5 μg/kg/min) has no effect on basal regional cerebral blood flow but reverses increases in regional cerebral blood flow induced by rat adrenomedullin in rats. Unlike adrenomedullin (1-52), adrenomedullin (22-52) has no effect on mesenteric arterial perfusion pressure in cats.
Pro-Adrenomedullin(153-185),human, (C143H224N42O43), a peptide with the sequence H2N-SLPEAGPGRTLVSSKPQAHGAPAPPSGSAPHFL-OH, MW= 3219.6. Adrenomedullin (AM) is a ubiquitously expressed peptide initially isolated from phaechromyctoma in 19931. AM was initially identified as a vasodilator, some have cited this as the most potent endogenous vasodilatory peptide found in the body2. Differences in opinion regarding the ability of AM to relax vascular tone arises from the differences in the model system used3. Other effects of AM include increasing the tolerance of cells to oxidative stress and hypoxic injury and angiogenesis. AM is seen as a positive influence in diseases such as hypertension, myocardial infarction, chronic obstructive pulmonary disease and other cardiovascular diseases, whereas it can be seen as a negative factor in potentiating the potential of cancerous cells to extend their blood supply and cause cell proliferation.
Adrenomedullin (AM) (1-52), human (TFA), is an NH2-terminal truncated adrenomedullin analogue that influences cell proliferation and angiogenesis in cancer.
Adrenomedullin 11-50 rat is a peptide fragment of adrenomedullin that possesses systemic vasodilator activity at the level of calcitonin gene-related peptide-1 (CGRP1) receptor activation. Adrenomedullin and its peptide may be used in bone growth studies.
Adrenomedullin (1-50), rat, is a 50 amino acid peptide hormone that induces selective arterial vasodilation via CGRP1 receptor activation, with RNA expression in rat adrenal glands, lung, kidney, heart, and spleen.
Adrenomedullin (13-52) is a 40 amino acid peptide with one intramolecular disulfide bridge, Adrenomedullin (13-52) is a high affinity ligand for the adrenomedullin receptor.
Adrenomedullin (AM) (1-12), human, is a peptide with the sequence Tyr-Arg-Gln-Ser-Met-Asn-Asn-Phe-Gln-Gly-Leu-Arg. Adrenomedullin (AM) (1-12), human, was initially identified as a vasodilator, and as such, it has the ability to relax vascular tone. Other
Adrenomedullin (AM) (22-52), human [22-52-Adrenomedullin human], TFA, is a C-terminal truncated analogue of adrenomedullin and acts as an adrenomedullin receptor antagonist.
Endogenous peptide agonist of Mas related GPR X2 (MRGPRX2, EC50 = 251 nM). Also a noncompetitive nicotinic cholinergic antagonist. Inhibits nicotine-stimulated catecholamine secretion from PC12 cells in vitro, and from sympathetic nerve endings and adrena
Calcitonin is a peptide hormone that lowers blood calcium level and inhibits bone resorption. It belongs to the calcitonin family of peptides, which also includes amylin , calcitonin gene-related peptide , and adrenomedullin. The binding of salmon calcitonin to the human calcitonin receptor (CTR) is not modulated by receptor activity-modifying proteins (RAMPs), which influence affinity of human calcitonin to CTR. Salmon calcitonin binds to human CTR2 with IC50 values of 0.933, 0.224, 0.134, and 0.317 nM alone and with RAMP1, 2, or 3, respectively. It induces cAMP accumulation in COS-7 cells transfected with CTR2 (EC50 = 0.166 nM). Salmon calcitonin inhibits bone resorption by osteoclasts in a pit formation assay using rat bone slices (ID50 = 0.003 pg mL) and lowers calcium level in vivo in a bioassay of hypocalcemia in rats (ED15 = 33.9 mg kg). Formulations containing salmon calcitonin have been used to treat hypercalcemia, bone destruction by osteoporosis, and Paget's disease.
