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

This study investigated second messengers formed in response to calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) in primary cultures of neonatal rat spinal cord. CGRP increased the level of cAMP above basal levels (50 pmol/mg protein) over a large range of concentrations. The concentration-response curve had
## Abstract The sacroiliac joint (SIJ) can be a source of low back pain. Calcitonin gene‐related peptide (CGRP) has been reported to play a significant role in nociceptive processing. However, the occurrence of CGRP‐immunoreactive (CGRP‐ir) sensory nerve fibers in the SIJ has not been fully defined
The sensory apparatus of the extraocular muscles attains special interest because of the great variation among different species with respect to the proprioceptors. The sensory innervation of the guinea pig extraocular muscles, lacking both muscle spindles and tendon organs, was investigated with a
