Glucose-Dependent Insulinotropic Polypeptide (GIP) Induces Calcitonin Gene-Related Peptide (CGRP)-I and Procalcitonin (Pro-CT) Production in Human Adipocytes [PDF]
, 2011 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.

Gender aspects of CGRP in migraine [PDF]
Cephalalgia, 2017 Background Migraine is two to three times more prevalent in women than in men, but the mechanisms involved in this gender disparity are still poorly understood. In this respect, calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) plays a key role in migraine pathophysiology and, more recently, the functional interactions between ovarian steroid hormones, CGRP and ...

Role of calcitonin gene-related peptide in bone repair after cyclic fatigue loading. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2011 Calcitonin gene related peptide (CGRP) is a neuropeptide that is abundant in the sensory neurons which innervate bone. The effects of CGRP on isolated bone cells have been widely studied, and CGRP is currently considered to be an osteoanabolic peptide ...

Frequent mild head injury promotes trigeminal sensitivity concomitant with microglial proliferation, astrocytosis, and increased neuropeptide levels in the trigeminal pain system. [PDF]
, 2017 BACKGROUND: Frequent mild head injuries or concussion along with the presence of headache may contribute to the persistence of concussion symptoms. METHODS: In this study, the acute effects of recovery between mild head injuries and the frequency of ...

Cgrp Characterization And Classification [PDF]
The Scientific World JOURNAL, 2001 The peptide CGRP is thought to be an agonist at a number of receptors including its own as well as those for adrenomedullin and amylin. CGRP is thought to act through its own receptors if it is antagonized by the truncated peptide CGRP8-37 although this assumes the specificity of the antagonist.

CGRP and CGRP-Receptor as Targets of Migraine Therapy: Brain Prize-2021
CNS & Neurological Disorders - Drug Targets, 2022 Background : Migraine is a highly prevalent primary headache with an unclear pathomechanism. During the last 40 years, numerous hypotheses have arisen; among them, the theory of the trigeminovascular system is the primary one. It serves as a skeleton in successful preclinical studies and in the development of effective therapeutic options for migraine

The organisation of spinoparabrachial neurons in the mouse [PDF]
, 2015 The anterolateral tract (ALT), which originates from neurons in lamina I and the deep dorsal horn, represents a major ascending output through which nociceptive information is transmitted to brain areas involved in pain perception.
