Research Backgrounds

Function:

CGRP induces vasodilation. It dilates a variety of vessels including the coronary, cerebral and systemic vasculature. Its abundance in the CNS also points toward a neurotransmitter or neuromodulator role. It also elevates platelet cAMP.

Subcellular Location:

Secreted.

Extracellular region or secreted Cytosol Plasma membrane Cytoskeleton Lysosome Endosome Peroxisome ER Golgi apparatus Nucleus Mitochondrion Manual annotation Automatic computational assertionSubcellular location
Family&Domains:

Belongs to the calcitonin family.

Function:

Calcitonin causes a rapid but short-lived drop in the level of calcium and phosphate in blood by promoting the incorporation of those ions in the bones.

Katacalcin is a potent plasma calcium-lowering peptide.

Application: IHC    Species: Mouse    Sample:

Figure 5. (A–D) Immunohistochemistry was used to detect the expression of CGRP, Substance P, C-Fos and KCC2 in the anterior cingulate cortex (ACC). (E1–E4) The integrated optical density (IOD) was quantitatively analyzed (IOD/area) to determine marker expression. The expression of CGRP, Substance P and C-Fos in the ACC in the SCI model increased, and the expression of KCC2 decreased (one-way ANOVA; SCI vs. sham, **P < 0.0001). The expression of CGRP, Substance P and C-Fos decreased, whereas that of KCC2 increased, after local injection of HU-MSCs (one-way ANOVA; SCI + HU-MSC vs. SCI/SCI + PBS, **P < 0.0001).
