Abstract

Adrenomedullin (ADM), a new vasorelaxing and natriuretic peptide, may function as an endogenous regulator of cardiac function, because ADM and its binding sites have been found in the heart. We characterize herein the cardiac effects of ADM as well as the underlying signaling pathways in vitro. In isolated perfused, paced rat heart preparation, infusion of ADM at concentrations of 0.1 to 1 nmol/L for 30 minutes induced a dose-dependent, gradual increase in developed tension, whereas proadrenomedullin N-20 (PAMP; 10 to 100 nmol/L), a peptide derived from the same gene as ADM, had no effect. The ADM-induced positive inotropic effect was not altered by a calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) receptor antagonist, CGRP8-37, or H-89, a cAMP-dependent protein kinase inhibitor. ADM also failed to stimulate ventricular cAMP content of the perfused hearts. Ryanodine (3 nmol/L), a sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca2+ release channel opener, suppressed the overall ADM-induced positive inotropic effect. Pretreatment with thapsigargin (30 nmol/L), which inhibits sarcoplasmic reticulum Ca2+ ATPase and depletes intracellular Ca2+ stores, attenuated the early increase in developed tension produced by ADM. In addition, inhibition of protein kinase C by ...Continue Reading

Atrial fibrillation is a common arrhythmia that is associated with substantial morbidity and mortality, particularly due to stroke and thromboembolism. Here is the latest research.

Arrhythmia

Arrhythmias are abnormalities in heart rhythms, which can be either too fast or too slow. They can result from abnormalities of the initiation of an impulse or impulse conduction or a combination of both. Here is the latest research on arrhythmias.
