Adrenomedullin (AM) is a hypotensive peptide hormone that exerts anti-inflammatory effects and is involved in wound healing and embryogenesis. However, treatment requires continuous administration as the half-life of native AM is short in blood. To resolve this, we developed four human IgG1 and IgG4 Fc-fusion proteins containing full-length hAM or hAM residues 6-52 using mammalian cells. The Fc-AM produced were amidated and in the active form. All Fc-AMs stimulated cAMP production in HEK-293 cells stably expressing the AM1 receptor. The activities of IgG1-AM (6-52) and IgG4-AM (6-52) were higher than those of IgG1-AM and IgG4-AM. Sufficient concentrations of IgG1-AM (6-52) and IgG4-AM (6-52) were observed in blood 14 days after a single subcutaneous administration. Furthermore, after IgG1-AM (6-52) or IgG4-AM (6-52) administration, tissue transfer to the kidney and small intestine was observed. Treatment with IgG4-AM (6-52) inhibited blood pressure increase in spontaneously hypertensive rats. Fc-AM produced from mammalian cells can be easily prepared and might be an effective novel therapeutic agent. (1) Background: Human adrenomedullin (hAM) is a hypotensive peptide hormone that exerts powerful anti-inflammatory effects. AM also had therapeutic effects in various animal experimental models of disease. However, treatment required continuous administration as the half-life of native AM is short in blood. To resolve this, we developed four human IgG1 and IgG4 Fc-fusion proteins containing full-length hAM or hAM residues 6-52. (2) Methods: We used mammalian cells to produce recombinant Fc-AM derivatives and tested the pharmacokinetics and biological activity of Fc-AM. (3) Results: We developed four Fc-fusion AMs (Fc-AM), which are long-acting AM derivatives in mammalian cells. Fc-AM had a prolonged half-life in blood and retained its ability to bind to the AM1 receptor. Fc-AM (6-52) induced higher cAMP levels for the receptor than Fc-AM. After the administration of IgG1-AM (6-52) or IgG4-AM (6-52) to rats, tissue transfer to the kidney and small intestine was observed. In addition, treatment with IgG4-AM (6-52) inhibited blood pressure increase in spontaneously hypertensive rats. (4) Conclusions: Fc-AM produced from mammalian cells can be easily prepared and might be an effective novel therapeutic agent.
