Calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) is the major product of the calcitonin gene in brain and exerts a number of actions in the central nervous system (CNS). In particular the finding that CGRP affects dopamine (DA) release and metabolism has raised the possibility that it may play a role in sever

The effects of lithium on brain regional concentrations of substance P (SP)-, neurokinin A (NKA)-, calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP)-and neuropeptide Y (NPY)-like immunoreactivities (-LI) were studied in rat. In the pilot study, rats were divided into three groups that were administered vehicle
During postnatal development, the expression of calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) and its mRNA was investigated in the superior olivary complex of the hamster in order to better understand its role in the development of the efferent olivocochlear (OC) pathway. Although both the peptide and its
## Abstract The present study was undertaken to investigate the plasticity of calcitonin geneβrelated peptide (CGRP) in antinociception after morphine tolerance in rats. The hindpaw withdrawal latencies (HWLs) to both thermal and mechanical stimulation increased significantly after intracerebrovent
