Skin immunity is regulated by many mediator molecules. One is the neuropeptide calcitonin
gene-related peptide (CGRP). CGRP has roles in regulating the function of components of …

Calcitonin gene‐related peptide (CGRP) has been viewed as a neuropeptide and
vasodilator. However, CGRP is more appropriately thought of as a pleiotropic signalling …

CGRP is a neuropeptide that has previously been described to possess immunosuppressive
activities. CGRP is released from peripheral nerves that, in the skin, are in close physical …

Some cutaneous inflammations are induced by percutaneous exposure to foreign Ags, and
many chemical mediators regulate this inflammation process. One of these mediators …

The question of how the neural and immune systems interact in host defense is important,
integrating a system that senses the whole body with one that protects. Understanding the …

This study examined whether the sensory neuropeptide calcitonin gene-related peptide
(CGRP) inhibits release of chemokines by dermal microvascular endothelial cells. Dermal …

Certain neuropeptides, such as CGRP, are associated with C-type nerve fibers in the skin
and are known to be proinflammatory mediators. Because of their probable role in various …

Calcitonin gene-related peptide and adrenomedullin exert potent effects in skin but their
cellular targets are unknown. This study aimed to identify the cellular location of calcitonin …

Calcitonin gene‐related peptide (CGRP) is widely distributed and plays important roles in a
wide array of biological functions. It is enriched in primary sensory neurons and hence …

Sensory nerves are abundant in lymphoid organs and rapidly release the neuropeptide
calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) in response to injury or infection. CGRP directly acts …
