Target Details for CGRP

Target: CGRP (CALCA) (Calcitonin-Related Polypeptide alpha (CALCA))

Alternative Name: Calcitonin Gene Related Peptide (CGRP) (CALCA Products)

Background:

Synonyms: Alpha-type CGRP, Calcitonin gene-related peptide I

Background: CGRP antibody recognizes Calcitonin Gene Related Peptide or CGRP which is a 37 amino acid peptide and is the most potent endogenous vasodilator currently known. CGRP is primarily produced in nervous tissue, however, its receptors are expressed throughout the body. CGRP is also 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. CGRP antibodies have been used successfully in immunoneutralization. Anti-CGRP antibody is ideal for investigators involved in Cell Signaling, Neuroscience, Signal Transduction research.
