متن کاملVascular actions of calcitonin gene-related peptide and adrenomedullin.
This review summarizes the receptor-mediated vascular activities of calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) and the structurally related peptide adrenomedullin (AM). CGRP is a 37-amino acid neuropeptide, primarily released from sensory nerves, whilst AM is produced by stimulated vascular cells, and amylin is secreted from the pancreas. They share vasodilator activity, albeit to varying extents d...
متن کاملAdrenomedullin and calcitonin gene-related peptide receptors in endocrine-related cancers: opportunities and challenges.
Adrenomedullin (AM), adrenomedullin 2 (AM2/intermedin) and calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) are members of the calcitonin family of peptides. They can act as growth or survival factors for a number of tumours, including those that are endocrine-related. One mechanism through which this occurs is stimulating angiogenesis and lymphangiogenesis. AM is expressed by numerous tumour types and f...
متن کاملCalcitonin gene-related peptide- and adrenomedullin-induced facilitation of calcium current in submandibular ganglion.
OBJECTIVE The control of saliva secretion is mainly under parasympathetic control. The submandibular ganglion (SMG) is a parasympathetic ganglion which receives inputs from preganglionic cholinergic neurons, and innervates the submandibular salivary gland to control saliva secretion. The aim of this study was to investigate if adrenomedullin (ADM) and/or calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) m...
