Abstract: In cultured bovine adrenal medullary cells, stimulation of nicotinic receptors by carbachol evoked the Ca2+‐dependent exocytotic cosecretion of proadrenomedullin N‐terminal 20 peptide (PAMP) (EC50 = 50.1 µM) and catecholamines (EC50 = 63.0 µM), with the molar ratio of PAMP/catecholamines secreted being equal to the ratio in the cells. Addition of PAMP[1–20]NH2 inhibited carbachol‐induced 22Na+ influx via nicotinic receptors (IC50 = 2.5 µM) in a noncompetitive manner and thereby reduced carbachol‐induced 45Ca2+ influx via voltage‐dependent Ca2+ channels (IC50 = 1.0 µM) and catecholamine secretion (IC50 = 1.6 µM). It did not alter high K+‐induced 45Ca2+ influx via voltage‐dependent Ca2+ channels or veratridine‐induced 22Na+ influx via voltage‐dependent Na+ channels. PAMP seems to be a novel antinicotinic peptide cosecreted with catecholamines by a Ca2+‐dependent exocytosis in response to nicotinic receptor stimulation.
