Labelled adrenomedullin derivatives and their use for imaging and therapy

ActiveUS20090028790A1BiocideHormone peptidesMajor bleedingPULMONARY EMBOLUS
The present invention relates to an adrenomedullin derivative including an adrenomedullin peptide, or a fragment thereof chelated or otherwise bound to at least one active agent. Examples of active agents include a paramagnetic element, a radioactive element and a fibrinolytic agent, among others. Paramagnetic agents have a distribution that is relatively easily shown through Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI). Radioactive agents have applications in imaging and delivery of radiations, depending on the specific element included in the active agent. Delivery of fibrinolytic agents mainly to a specific organ, such as for example to the lungs, allows to substantially improve the specificity and efficacy of thrombolytic therapy by allowing local delivery of the fibrinolytic agent, thereby reducing the risks of major bleeding in the therapy of the organ. If the organ is the lungs, a non-limiting example of pathology treatable with the fibrinolytic agent is pulmonary embolus.

An objective of the present invention is to provide methods for producing progenitor cells which show a high proliferation ability ex vivo and promote neovascularization or myocardium regeneration, by culturing pluripotent cells in a medium containing adrenomedullin (AM) and / or vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF). Moreover, another objective of the present invention is to provide the progenitor cells and uses thereof. In order to solve the above problems, the inventors of the present application have successfully developed a novel culture technique for producing progenitor cells from adipose tissues more efficiently compared to the conventional techniques, by using adrenomedullin (AM) and / or vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF). The progenitor cells produced by the present inventors are specialized cells having a potent proliferation ability, a revascularization ability, and a myocardium regeneration ability, and have the property of not differentiating into adipocytes even if subjected to differentiation induction into adipocytes. Therefore, the progenitor cells of the present invention can be effective pharmaceutical agents for intractable diseases in the brain, lung, liver, kidney and the like.

Methods for Regenerating and Repairing Damaged Tissues Using Adrenomedullin

[Problems to be Solved] An objective of the present invention is to provide methods for regenerating or repairing damaged tissues using adrenomedullin. Another objective is to provide pharmaceutical agents that comprise adrenomedullin as an active ingredient for regenerating or repairing damaged tissues.[Means for Solving the Problems] To solve the above problems, the present inventors administered adrenomedullin (hereinafter indicated as AM) or physiological saline to C57BL / 6 mice, and counted the numbers of mononuclear cells and Sca-1-positive cells in the blood. The result showed that AM increased the numbers of mononuclear cells and stem cell antigen-1-positive cells in the blood. It was also shown that by administering AM to a mouse model of pulmonary emphysema and a rat model of acute myocardial infarction, the quantity of bone marrow-derived cells that migrated and settled into the damaged tissues increased, and the recruited bone marrow cells differentiated into blood vessels, alveoli, and cardiac muscle at the lesion sites. Further, decrease in infarct size, suppression of the enlargement of alveolar diameter, and improvement of organ functions were confirmed in the models of myocardial infarction and pulmonary emphysema.
