Adrenomedullin inhibits adipogenesis under transcriptional control of insulin.
International audienceWe generated preadipocyte cell lines impaired in adrenomedullin production through integration of an adrenomedullin small interfering RNA expression vector.

Abstract figure legend Preglomerular pericyte‐like SMMHC+ vascular smooth muscle cells (VSMCs) display marked endocrine plasticity. Hypotension caused by salt depletion and angiotensin‐converting enzyme (ACE) inhibition induces a reversible transformation of these VSMCs toward an endocrine state that produces renin.

Adrenomedullin: Its role in the cardiovascular system
Adrenomedullin is a 52-amino acid peptide that was first isolated from human pheochromocytoma. Subsequently, it was found to be distributed widely in the body, including throughout the cardiovascular system.

The Role of Adrenomedullin in the Renal NADPH Oxidase and (Pro)renin in Diabetic Mice
Adrenomedullin has an antioxidative action and protects organs in various diseases. To clarify the role of adrenomedullin in diabetic nephropathy, we investigated the NADPH oxidase expression, renin-secreting granular cell (GC) hyperplasia, and ...

Objective Proadrenomedullin (pro‐ADM) is a peptide implicated in immunomodulation, with higher levels observed in inflammatory conditions, cardiovascular impairment, and sepsis. Although extensively studied in acute disorders, its potential as a biomarker in inflammatory arthritis remains underexplored.

Amniotic fluid concentrations of adrenomedullin.
To determine whether adrenomedullin levels in amniotic fluid were associated with preterm labor. We measured immunoreactive adrenomedullin in amniotic fluid collected by amniocentesis from 36 women with clinical diagnosis of preterm labor or preterm ...

How does type 2 diabetes modify the risk of Alzheimer's disease?
Abstract Type 2 diabetes (T2D) and Alzheimer's disease (AD) are both increasing exponentially worldwide. T2D has also been identified as one of 14 modifiable risk factors for dementia, but the mechanism is unknown. T2D could promote dementia via vascular or AD neuropathological changes, and mechanistic hypotheses include central insulin resistance and ...

Targeting Tumor Stroma: Current Challenges and Future Directions
Figure 1. Mechanism of ECM reprogramming. Cancer‐associated fibroblasts (CAFs), cancer‐associated macrophages (CAMs), and other mesenchymal cells alter the ECM composition and increase its stiffness by depositing matrix components such as collagen and hyaluronic acid, and secreting cross‐linking agents like lysyl oxidase homolog 2 (LOXL2).
