Grape seed extract suppresses calcitonin gene-related peptide secretion and upregulates expression of GAD 65/67 and GABAB receptor in primary trigeminal ganglion cultures

open access: yesIBRO Neuroscience Reports, 2022
The trigeminal ganglion is implicated in the underlying pathology of migraine and temporomandibular joint disorders (TMD), which are orofacial pain conditions involving peripheral and central sensitization.

Isolation and characterisation of a human calcitonin‐gene‐related‐peptide receptor [PDF]

open access: yesEuropean Journal of Biochemistry, 1987
We describe the identification and purification of a receptor for calcitonin‐gene‐related peptide (CGRP) from human term placenta, using lectin and β‐CGRP–Affigel affinity chromatography. The membrane‐bound receptor has an estimated Mr of 240000, as determined by cross‐linking 125I‐labelled α‐CGRP (125I‐α‐CGRP) using discuccinimidyl suberate and SDS ...

Neuroendocrinology of the lung revealed by single-cell RNA sequencing

open access: yeseLife, 2022
Pulmonary neuroendocrine cells (PNECs) are sensory epithelial cells that transmit airway status to the brain via sensory neurons and locally via calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) and γ- aminobutyric acid (GABA).

Neuropeptides and the Nodes of Ranvier in Cranial Headaches

open access: yesFrontiers in Physiology, 2022
The trigeminovascular system (TGV) comprise of the trigeminal ganglion with neurons and satellite glial cells, with sensory unmyelinated C-fibers and myelinated Aδ-fibers picking up information from different parts of the head and sending signals to the ...

Botulinum Toxin as a Pain Killer: Players and Actions in Antinociception

open access: yesToxins, 2015
Botulinum neurotoxins (BoNTs) have been widely used to treat a variety of clinical ailments associated with pain. The inhibitory action of BoNTs on synaptic vesicle fusion blocks the releases of various pain-modulating neurotransmitters, including ...

Neuroimmune communication in allergic rhinitis

open access: yesFrontiers in Neurology, 2023
The prevalence rate of allergic rhinitis (AR) is high worldwide. The inhalation of allergens induces AR, which is an immunoglobulin E-mediated and type 2 inflammation-driven disease.

Peptidergic Systems and Cancer: Focus on Tachykinin and Calcitonin/Calcitonin Gene-Related Peptide Families

open access: yes, 2023
The roles played by the peptides belonging to the tachykinin (neurokinin A and B) and calcitonin/calcitonin gene-related peptide (adrenomedullin, adrenomedullin 2, amylin, and calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP)) peptide families in cancer development
