Calcitonin receptor gene expression in K562 chronic myelogenous leukemic cells [PDF]

, 2003
Background The peptide hormone calcitonin (CT) can significantly effect the proliferation rate of CT receptor (CTR) positive human cancer cells. We wish to identify additional human cancers expressing CTRs and assay the effects of CT on their growth ...

GPCRs in CAR‐T Cell Immunotherapy: Expanding the Target Landscape and Enhancing Therapeutic Efficacy

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Chimeric antigen receptor T cell therapy faces dual challenges of target scarcity and an immunosuppressive microenvironment in solid tumors. This review highlights how G protein‐coupled receptors can serve as both novel targets to expand the therapeutic scope and functional modules to enhance CAR‐T cell efficacy.

Triptans and Calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) receptor antagonists

Rinsho Shinkeigaku, 2012
While triptans, the 5-HT1B/1D agonists, are effective and generally well-tolerated in many patients up to one-third of migraine patients either may not respond well to triptans, may not tolerate their side effects, or may have contraindications that preclude their use.

Neuropharmacological targets for drug action in vestibular sensory pathways [PDF]

, 2017
The use of pharmacological agents is often the preferred approach to the management of vestibular dysfunction. In the vestibular sensory pathways, the sensory neuroepithelia are thought to be influenced by a diverse number of neuroactive substances that ...

Sensory Nerve‐Derived CGRP Controls Osteoclastogenesis by Limiting Macrophage Bioenergetics in Bone Repair

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Sensory nerves help bones heal. This study shows that the neuropeptide CGRP, released from sensory nerves, slows down macrophage energy production, preventing excessive bone breakdown. By revealing this nerve–immune–metabolism connection, the work provides new insight into how the body balances bone repair and opens doors to targeted treatments ...

Antimicrobial Neuropeptides and Their Receptors: Immunoregulator and Therapeutic Targets for Immune Disorders

Molecules
The interaction between the neuroendocrine system and the immune system plays a key role in the onset and progression of various diseases. Neuropeptides, recognized as common biochemical mediators of communication between these systems, are receiving ...

Cellular Identity Crisis: RD3 Loss Fuels Plasticity and Immune Silence in Progressive Neuroblastoma

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
Researchers discovered that therapy‐induced loss of RD3 protein in neuroblastoma triggers a dangerous shift: cancer cells become more stem‐like, invasive, and resistant to treatment while evading immune detection. RD3 loss suppresses antigen presentation and boosts immune checkpoints, creating an immune‐silent environment.

Sex differences in expression of CGRP family of receptors and ligands in the rat trigeminal system

The Journal of Headache and Pain
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).

Bioinspired Engineering of Streamlined Skeletal Interoception: Neural Bioprinted Piezoelectric Scaffolds for Neuro‐Vascularized Bone Regeneration

Advanced Science, EarlyView.
This study develops neural bioprinted piezoelectric scaffolds which construct local “sensor‐effector” circuit, inspired by the skeletal interoception system. Upon US stimulation sensing and mechanoelectrical coupling by PLLA nanofibers, the incorporated DRG neurons effect through Ca2+ influx‐induced enhanced secretion and expression of CGRP.
