Calcitonin gene-related peptide (receptor) antibodies: An exciting avenue for migraine treatment [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Specific prophylactic migraine treatments are urgently needed because of the unmet needs of many migraine patients. Antibodies targeting calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) or its receptor have recently shown efficacy in episodic and chronic migraine ...

The Origins of Allergy: An Outside‐In, Bioenergetic Hypothesis

open access: yesAllergy, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Allergic disease has risen too rapidly for inherited susceptibility to explain it, and the risk variants so far reported lie in the epithelial barrier and in type‐2 immunity. We propose a five‐layer model in which epithelial barrier and bioenergetic dysfunction may precede and promote type‐2 immune deviation rather than arise solely as its ...

Activation of renal pelvic chemoreceptors in rats: role of calcitonin gene-related peptide receptors [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
Substance P and calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) increase afferent renal nerve activity (ARNA). A substance P receptor antagonist but not a CGRP receptor antagonist, h-CGRP (8-37), blocks the ARNA response to renal mechanoreceptor (MRI stimulation.

Evaluation of serum vascular smooth muscle tone regulators in patients with hypothyroidism and concomitant hypertension: A cross-sectional study

open access: yesBabcock University Medical Journal
Objective: Hypothyroidism is known to affect cardiovascular function through multiple mechanisms, yet the role of vascular smooth muscle tone regulators in early disease remains incompletely understood.

Role of Gubernaculum testis inervation during the process of testicular migration in human fetuses [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Brazilian Journal of Urology
Purpose: The gubernaculum seems to be the most important anatomical structure in the testicular migration process. The objective of this paper is to review current literature regarding the role of gubernaculum testis nerves in testicular migration.

Calcitonin Gene-Related Peptide in the Human Hypothalamus.

open access: yesEndocrinologia Japonica, 1989
Calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP)-like immunoreactivity (LI) in the human hypothalamus was investigated by radioimmunoassay and by immunocytochemistry. CGRP-LI was detected from two hypothalami obtained at autopsy (2.1 and 7.0 ng/g wet tissue) by radioimmunoassay.

The effect of calcitonin gene-related peptide on healing of intestinal anastomosis in rats with experimental obstructive jaundice

open access: yes, 2009
Intestinal anastomotic healing is a complex procedure in which several mediators and cytokines play roles. Calcitonin gene-related peptide is an important neuropeptide in inflammation.

Activation of peripheral NOP receptors reduces periorbital mechanical allodynia evoked by CGRP in mice

open access: yesBritish Journal of Pharmacology, EarlyView.
Background and Purpose Migraine is a neurovascular disorder largely mediated by calcitonin gene‐related peptide (CGRP). This study explores the role of the nociceptin/orphanin FQ (N/OFQ)–N/OFQ receptor (NOP) system in CGRP‐induced periorbital mechanical allodynia (PMA) in mice.

The Mechanism of Calcitonin Gene-Related Peptide–Containing Nerve Innervation

open access: yesJournal of Pharmacological Sciences, 2012
Calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) is a major neurotransmitter and CGRP-containing primary sensory neurons play an important role in nociception and potent vasodilation.
