Target

CGRP receptor[1]

In VitroCGRP-(8-37) is a truncated version of calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) that binds to the CGRP receptor with similar affinity but does not activate the receptor[1].
In VivoCGRP-(8-37) is effective in alleviating mechanical and thermal allodynia in a dose-dependent manner. The 50 nM dose is most efficacious for both forelimb and hindlimb responses. The period of efficacy is 10 min to onset for a duration of 20 min. Post-drug washout responses are not statistically significant compared to pre-drug responses[1]. Intrathecal administration of 5 nmol or 10 nmol of CGRP-(8-37), but not 1 nmol, induces a significant increase in hindpaw withdrawal latency. Intrathecal administration of CGRP-(8-37) not only reverses the SP-induced decrease in latency to both withdrawal responses but also mediates a significant increase in response latency compared to basal levels[2].
Animal AdminRats: Adult male Sprague Dawley rats are given a spinal hemisection or a sham surgery at the T13 spinal segment. An externally accessible PE-10 intrathecal catheter that terminated at T13 is used for drug delivery. Animals are allowed to recover for 4 weeks at which time the hemisected animals displayed mechanical and thermal allodynia bilaterally, in both forelimbs and hindlimbs. CGRP-(8-37) is delivered just prior to a testing session in 1, 5, 10, or 50 nM doses in artificial cerebral spinal fluid in 10 mL volumes[1].
