Background Information
Calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) is a 37-amino acid neuropeptide, which is primarily localized to C and Aδ sensory fibers. These fibers display a wide innervation throughout the body, with extensive perivascular localization, and have a dual role in sensory (nociceptive) and efferent (effector) function. Discovered 30 years ago, it is produced as a consequence of alternative RNA processing of the calcitonin gene. CGRP has two major forms (α and β).
