Effect of intracerebroventricular (ICV) injection of adrenomedullin and its interaction with NPY and CCK pathways on food intake regulation in neonatal layer-type chicks [PDF]
: Adrenomedullin has various physiological roles including appetite regulation. The objective of present study was to determine the effects of ICV injection of adrenomedullin and its interaction with NPY and CCK receptors on food intake regulation.

Differential expression of components of the CGRP-receptor family in human coronary and human middle meningeal arteries: functional implications [PDF]
Background Different responses in human coronary arteries (HCA) and human middle meningeal arteries (HMMA) were observed for some of the novel CGRP receptor antagonists, the gepants, for inhibiting CGRP-induced relaxation.

Unraveling the role of GPCR signaling in metabolic reprogramming and immune microenvironment of lung adenocarcinoma: a multi-omics study with experimental validation [PDF]
BackgroundLung adenocarcinoma (LUAD) is characterized by metabolic and immune heterogeneity, driving tumor progression and therapy resistance. While G protein-coupled receptors (GPCR) signaling is known to regulate metabolism and immunity in cancers, its

Sex differences in expression of CGRP family of receptors and ligands in the rat trigeminal system [PDF]
Background Calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) is part of the calcitonin peptide family, which includes calcitonin (CT), amylin (AMY), and adrenomedullin (ADM). CGRP and its receptor are highly present in the trigeminovascular system (TVS).

Plasma Clearance of Intravenously Infused Adrenomedullin in Rats with Acute Renal Failure
Plasma adrenomedullin concentrations are reportedly elevated in patients with renal failure; however, the underlying mechanism is unclear. In this study, we investigated the plasma clearance of synthetic human adrenomedullin (AM) in two models of rats ...

Gel-forming antagonist provides a lasting effect on CGRP-induced vasodilation
Migraine affects ∼15% of the adult population, and the standard treatment includes the use of triptans, ergotamines, and analgesics. Recently, CGRP and its receptor, the CLR/RAMP1 receptor complex, have been targeted for migraine treatment due to their ...

Future targets for migraine treatment beyond CGRP
Background Migraine is a disabling and chronic neurovascular headache disorder. Trigeminal vascular activation and release of calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) play a pivotal role in the pathogenesis of migraine.
