Adrenomedullin (AM) exerts strong pulmonary vasodilatory effects. These effects are mediated in part by nitric oxide. Plasma AM levels are increased in patients with pulmonary hypertension and correlate with disease severity and poor outcomes. Acute administration of AM improves the haemodynamics in patients with pulmonary hypertension, while chronic administration prevents the onset of pulmonary hypertension in animal models and delays its progression. Thus, AM is closely related to the pathophysiology of pulmonary hypertension and may be a promising therapeutic target.
期刊介绍:
The Danish Medical Journal (DMJ) is a general medical journal. The journal publish original research in English – conducted in or in relation to the Danish health-care system. When writing for the Danish Medical Journal please remember target audience which is the general reader. This means that the research area should be relevant to many readers and the paper should be presented in a way that most readers will understand the content.
DMJ will publish the following articles:
• Original articles
• Protocol articles from large randomized clinical trials
• Systematic reviews and meta-analyses
• PhD theses from Danish faculties of health sciences
• DMSc theses from Danish faculties of health sciences.
