Adrenomedullin prevents apoptosis in prostate cancer cells [PDF]
The 52-aminoacid peptide adrenomedullin (AM) is expressed in the normal and malignant prostate. We have previously shown that prostate cancer cells produce and secrete AM, which acts as an autocrine growth inhibitory factor.

Differential roles of interleukin-6 and adrenomedullin in early diagnosis and mortality predictions in late-onset neonatal sepsis [PDF]
Background Diagnosing and predicting neonatal sepsis is challenging because of its nonspecific symptoms, lack of diagnostic criteria consensus, and absence of early, sensitive, and specific diagnostic laboratory tests.

Overexpression of adrenomedullin gene markedly inhibits proliferation of PC3 prostate cancer cells in vitro and in vivo [PDF]
The expression of the gene encoding adrenomedullin (AM), a multifunctional peptide hormone, in the prostate is localized to the epithelial cells. Prostate cancer cells are derived from prostatic epithelial cells. To elucidate the potential role of the AM

Low/brief glucocorticoid (GC) elevations can enhance mitochondrial output (↑ oxygen consumption rate, OCR; ↑ mitochondrial membrane potential, ΔΨm) and Ca2+ buffering, in part via glucocorticoid receptor (GR) trafficking to mitochondria in complexes with Bcl2 and Bag1.

Bioactive Adrenomedullin in Dogs with Sepsis and Septic Shock: A Prospective, Case-Control Study
Sepsis and septic shock are leading causes of morbidity and mortality in both humans and dogs, and early diagnosis is crucial for improving outcomes. This study aimed to evaluate bioactive adrenomedullin (bio-ADM) concentrations in dogs with septic shock

A pilot study on the diagnostic accuracy of proadrenomedullin and proatrial natriuretic Peptide in lower respiratory tract infections [PDF]
: Background: Pneumonia is the leading cause of death among infectious diseases in developed countries. However, the severity of pneumonia requiring hospitalization often makes the initial diagnosis difficult because of an equivocal clinical picture or

Hypoxia in the Initiation and Progression of Neuroblastoma Tumours [PDF]
Neuroblastoma is the most frequent extracranial solid tumour in children, causing 10% of all paediatric oncology deaths. It arises in the embryonic neural crest due to an uncontrolled behaviour of sympathetic nervous system progenitors, giving rise to ...
