Abstract excerpt
Adrenomedullin is known to inhibit cell proliferation in cultured rat vascular smooth muscle cells, through a cAMP-dependent process. The calcitonin receptor-like receptor could function as an adrenomedullin receptor when co-expressed with receptor activity-modifying protein 2. To determine whether vascular adrenomedullin receptor components, the calcitonin receptor-like receptor and the receptor...
