The effect of adrenomedullin and proadrenomedullin N- terminal 20 peptide on angiotensin II induced vascular smooth muscle cell proliferation
Objective(s): The study aimed to investigate the effects of adrenomedullin (ADM) and proadrenomedullin N- terminal 20 peptide (PAMP) on angiotensin II (AngII)-stimulated proliferation in vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs). Materials and Methods: Thoracic aorta was obtained from Wistar rats and VSMCs were isolated from aorta tissues and then cultured. In vitro cultured VSMCs were stimulated w...
متن کاملAdrenomedullin and proadrenomedullin N-terminal 20 peptide in the normal prostate and in prostate carcinoma.
There is increasing evidence for the important role played by regulatory peptides in the physiology of the normal and neoplastic prostate. Adrenomedullin (AM) and pro-adrenomedullin N-terminal 20 peptide (PAMP) are recently discovered regulatory peptides widely expressed in the normal prostate and in prostate carcinoma. AM is produced in secretory, stroma, and endothelial cells and in neurons o...
متن کاملExpression of adrenomedullin and proadrenomedullin N-terminal 20 peptide in human and rat prostate.
Adrenomedullin (AM) and proadrenomedullin N-terminal 20 peptide (PAMP) are two recently discovered hypotensive peptides translated from the same message transcript (preproAM mRNA). In this article we report the presence of AM, PAMP, and their mRNA in human and rat prostate and of AM receptor mRNA in rat prostate. PreproAM mRNA was found in the epithelium of normal human and rat prostate glands ...
متن کاملProadrenomedullin N-terminal 20 peptide inhibits aldosterone secretion of human adrenocortical and Conn's adenoma cells: comparison with adrenomedullin effect.
Adrenomedullin (ADM) and proadrenomedullin N-terminal 20 peptide (PAMP) are two vasoactive peptides, which are highly expressed in human adrenal gland. Autoradiography showed the presence of abundant [125I]ADM and [125I]PAMP binding sites in both the outer cortex and medulla of human adrenals. ADM, but not PAMP binding was completely displaced by the specific CGRP1 receptor antagonist CGRP(8-37...
متن کاملProadrenomedullin NH(2)-terminal 20 peptide (PAMP) and adrenomedullin bind to teratocarcinoma cells.
Proadrenomedullin NH(2-)terminal 20 peptide (PAMP) and adrenomedullin (ADM) bind to teratocarcinoma cells. The effects of PAMP and ADM on teratocarcinoma cells were investigated. (125)I-PAMP bound to PA1 cells with moderate affinity (K(d) = 110 nM) to a single class of sites (B(max) = 110 000/cell). Specific (125)I-PAMP binding was inhibited by PAMP (IC(50) of 100 nM) but not ADM, calcitonin ge...
