The expression and localization of the mRNA encoding the calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) were analyzed in the rat facial nucleus after axotomy by Northern blot analysis and by in situ hybridization histochemistry (ISH) using a synthetic 32P-labeled oligonucleotide probe. Northern blot analysi

Immunoreactivity for calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) has been observed in both adult and embryonic rat motoneurons. However, the developmental pattern of CGRP expression in motoneurons has not been systematically examined and the role of CGRP in neuromuscular development is poorly understood.
## Abstract The sacroiliac joint (SIJ) can be a source of low back pain. Calcitonin geneβrelated peptide (CGRP) has been reported to play a significant role in nociceptive processing. However, the occurrence of CGRPβimmunoreactive (CGRPβir) sensory nerve fibers in the SIJ has not been fully defined
Substance P (SP) and calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) are putative transmitters in the central and peripheral (sensory) nervous systems. In this study, we examined the effects of dependence on and withdrawal from morphine and methadone on brain SP and CGRP content. Female Long Evans rats (70-1
