Intermedin (IMD), a novel cardiac peptide related to adrenomedullin (AM), protects against myocardial ischemia-reperfusion injury and attenuates ventricular remodelling. IMD's actions are mediated by a calcitonin receptor-like receptor in association with receptor activity modifying proteins (RAMPs 1-3).
