Calcitonin Gene Related Peptide/CGRP [clone 4901], anti-human, mouse, rat, canine, guinea pig

Description: Calcitonin Gene Related Peptide or CGRP is a 37 amino acid peptide and is the most potent endogenous vasodilator currently known. It is primarily produced in nervous tissue and its receptors are expressed throughout the body. CGRP is strongly implicated in the vasodilatory effect of endogenous cannabinoid anandamide in the brain. This effect was found to be antagonized by capsazepine. CGRP is also currently a major target of research in regards to factors effecting the onset of migraine headaches.
