MeSH Heading: Adrenomedullin
Tree Number(s): D06.472.699.077; D12.644.548.017
Unique ID: D053607
RDF Unique Identifier: http://id.nlm.nih.gov/mesh/D053607
Scope Note: A 52-amino acid peptide with multi-functions. It was originally isolated from PHEOCHROMOCYTOMA and ADRENAL MEDULLA but is widely distributed throughout the body including lung and kidney tissues. Besides controlling fluid-electrolyte homeostasis, adrenomedullin is a potent vasodilator and can inhibit pituitary ACTH secretion.
