Background Information
Adrenomedullin (AM) and proadrenomedullin N-terminal 20 peptide (PAMP) are two small active hormones derived from the expression of a single gene (Adm) that is expressed throughout the GI tract, including the mucosal epithelium, glandular duct cells, neuroendocrine cells, and smooth muscle cells of the GI tract, between the oral cavity and the rectum (PMID:10782362, PMID:27345325). These two peptides coexist in GI cells, where they regulate many physiological functions including vasodilation, angiogenesis, anti-inflammation, organ protection, and tissue repair. AM suppresses inflammatory cytokine production in the intestinal mucosa, improves vascular and lymphatic function, mucosal epithelial repair, and intestinal barrier function in animal models with intestinal inflammation (PMID:27965594, PMID:29311984). Molecular mass species of 18, 14, and 6 kDa were identified in tumor cell lysates and presumably represent AM precursor, processed intermediates, and the authentic peptide, respectively. There is also a 22-kDa immunoreactive species in two cancer cell lines, H720 and MCF-7 (PMID: 8798536).
