Glucose-Dependent Insulinotropic Polypeptide (GIP) Induces Calcitonin Gene-Related Peptide (CGRP)-I and Procalcitonin (Pro-CT) Production in Human Adipocytes [PDF]
Context: Increased plasma levels of glucose-dependent insulinotropic polypeptide (GIP), calcitonin CT gene-related peptide (CGRP)-I, and procalcitonin (Pro-CT) are associated with obesity.

Exploring Ligand Binding to Calcitonin Gene-Related Peptide Receptors
Class B1 G protein-coupled receptors (GPCRs) are important targets for many diseases, including cancer, diabetes, and heart disease. All the approved drugs for this receptor family are peptides that mimic the endogenous activating hormones.

Calcitonin gene–related peptide in migraine: from pathophysiology to treatment
Introduction: It has been observed in recent years that levels of such molecules as calcitonin gene–related peptide (CGRP) and, to a lesser extent, the pituitary adenylate cyclase–activating peptide are elevated during migraine attacks and in chronic ...

Calcitonin Gene-Related Peptide (CGRP) and Cluster Headache
Cluster headache (CH) is a severe primary headache with a prevalence of 1/1000 individuals, and a predominance in men. Calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) is a potent vasodilator, originating in trigeminal neurons and has a central role in CH ...
