General description

Anti-MR-Pro ADM antibody, Mouse monoclonal (MidRegional pro-Adrenomedullin) (mouse IgG2a isotype) is derived from the hybridoma MR2.1 produced by the fusion of mouse myeloma cells and splenocytes from BALB/c mice immunized with a synthetic peptide corresponding to the internal region of human Adrenomedullin (ADM), conjugated to KLH. The precursor peptide of Adrenomedullin (ADM), prepro-ADM, is processed to the circulating form of ADM. During this processing, other peptides are also being generated; PAMP (proadrenomedullin N-terminal 20 peptide) with suggested hypotensive effect, and MR-pro ADM (Mid-Regional pro-Adrenomedullin) which consists of 47 amino acid-propeptide.

Immunogen

Synthetic peptide corresponding to the internal region of human Adrenomedullin (ADM), conjugated to KLH.

Application

Anti-MR-Pro ADM antibody has been used in immunoblotting, immunohistochemistry.

Biochem/physiol Actions

MR-pro ADM (MidRegional pro-Adrenomedullin) has been suggested as a biomarker for plasma concentrations of Adrenomedullin as it is stoichiometrically generated and relatively stable in the plasma. Increased levels of MR-pro ADM were associated with an increased risk of mortality and morbidity in patients with heart failure, independent of natriuretic peptides. In dialysis patients MR-pro ADM and MR-pro ANP were shown to be associated with mortality in general and particularly with cardiovascular related mortality, with the highest risk when both parameters were elevated.

Physical form

Solution in 0.01 M phosphate buffered saline pH 7.4, containing 15 mM sodium azide

First isolated from human pheochromocytoma cells, adrenomedullin (ADM) is a peptide hormone with natriuretic, vasodilatory, and hypotensive effects mediated by cyclic adenosine monophosphate (cAMP), nitric oxide, and renal prostaglandin systems. ADM expression occurs in many tissues and organ systems, including

Circulating biomarkers have become increasingly important in diagnosing and risk-stratifying patients with heart failure (HF). While the natriuretic peptides have received much focus in the past decade, there is increasing interest in the role of other circulating biomarkers such as
