الوصف: Adrenomedullin (AM) is a cardiovascular protective peptide produced in various organs and tissues including adipose tissue. In the present study, we measured the plasma AM levels of subjects with or without obesity by two assay methods to separately evaluate the biologically active AM–NH_2 and the intermediate form of AM–glycine (AM–Gly). We measured the total AM and AM–NH_2 levels of plasma in 52 obese and 172 non-obese residents of a Japanese community, who received regular health check-ups and had no overt cardiovascular disease. AM–Gly values were obtained by subtracting AM–NH_2 levels from those of total AM. Both the AM–NH_2 and AM–Gly levels of the subjects with obesity were higher than those without obesity, and significant relationships were noted between body mass index (BMI) and the plasma levels of the two molecular forms of AM in a simple regression analysis. Moreover, the significant factors identified by multivariate analyses were BMI and serum triglyceride for AM–NH_2 and diastolic blood pressure, insulin, high-density lipoprotein-cholesterol, and plasma renin activity for AM–Gly. These results suggest active roles for the two molecular forms of AM in metabolic disorders associated with obesity in subjects without overt cardiovascular disease. ; Citation: Nomura I, Kato J, Tokashiki M, Kitamura K.
