Research Abstract |
We have clarified that all five members of adrenomedullin(AM) family were expressed in tissues of medaka(Oryzias latipes) including osmoregulatory organs. The expressions of AM1, AM3, AM4 and AM5 were increased after transfer to freshwater and decreased in seawater, whereas that of AM2 was increased in seawater. The obtained data suggest that AM family genes except for AM2 are involved in freshwater adaptation, whereas AM2 is related to the adaptation to seawater.
