Circulation control by adrenomedullin 1 receptor complex

Adrenomedullin Receptor and Signal Transductton

Use of adrenomedullin derivatives for molecular imaging of pulmonary circulation.

UNLABELLED Currently, there is no low-molecular-weight agent for imaging of the pulmonary circulation. Adrenomedullin (AM) is a peptide predominantly cleared by the pulmonary circulation through specific endothelial receptors. We developed human AM derivatives radiolabeled with 99mTc and evaluated their biodistribution, plasma kinetics, and utility as pulmonary vascular imaging agents. METHOD...

Control of the Splanchnic Circulation 1

The major regulatory factors in the mesenteric circulation include general hemodynamic forces, the autonomic nervous system, circulating vasoactive substances, tissue metabolites and intrinsic characteristics of vascular smooth muscle. During mesenteric ischemic states smooth muscle spasm elevates resistance to blood flow and aggravates intestinal tissue hypoxia leading to mucosal necrosis. Clo...

Circulating adrenomedullin in cirrhosis: relationship to hyperdynamic circulation.

BACKGROUND/AIMS Peripheral arterial vasodilation may be the key factor in the sodium and water retention of cirrhosis. The mechanism responsible for this vasodilation remains to be fully elucidated. Adrenomedullin is a novel peptide, highly expressed in cardiovascular tissues, with potent and long-lasting vasodilating activity. METHODS The possible implication of adrenomedullin in the hemodyn...

control of the optical properties of nanoparticles by laser fields

در این پایان نامه، درهمتنیدگی بین یک سیستم نقطه کوانتومی دوگانه(مولکول نقطه کوانتومی) و میدان مورد مطالعه قرار گرفته است. از آنتروپی ون نیومن به عنوان ابزاری برای بررسی درهمتنیدگی بین اتم و میدان استفاده شده و تاثیر پارامترهای مختلف، نظیر تونل زنی(که توسط تغییر ولتاژ ایجاد می شود)، شدت میدان و نسبت دو گسیل خودبخودی بر رفتار درجه درهمتنیدگی سیستم بررسی شده اشت.با تغییر هر یک از این پارامترها، در...
