The association of nitric oxide (NO) with the hypotensive effects of adrenomedullin (AM) was investigated in anesthetized rats. Spontaneously hypertensive rats (SHR) and normotensive Wistar Kyoto rats (WKY) were used at 11-13 weeks of age. Blood pressure and heart rate were measured from the femoral
## Abstract An __ex vivo__ model of a perfused canine tibia was used to investigate the effect of human adrenomedullin, a novel peptide with known vasodilator properties, on the vascular resistance of bone. Human adrenomedullin has a potent and longβlasting vasodilator effect in the canine tibia fo
## Abstract Adrenomedullin (AdM) was originally discovered as a vasorelaxant peptide. The antioxidative properties of AdM have been reported recently. Through its antioxidative effect, adrenomedullin can protect organs from damage induced by stressors. Lead, commonly detected in air, soil, water an
