| Bioactivity | Calcitonin Gene Related Peptide (CGRP) II, rat TFA, a CGRP receptor activator, is a potent and long-lasting vasodilator. Calcitonin Gene Related Peptide (CGRP) II TFA can be used in the research of cardiovascular diseases[1]. | ||||||
| Invitro | Calcitonin Gene Related Peptide (CGRP) II, rat TFA induces vasodilator effects in small-diameter pig left anterior descending (LAD) coronary arteries with an EC50 value of 0.56 nM[1].Calcitonin Gene Related Peptide (CGRP) II, rat TFA relaxes the spontaneous tone in isolated internal anal sphincter (IAS) strips, with an EC50 value of 83 μM[2].Calcitonin Gene Related Peptide (CGRP) II, rat TFA (rβCGRP) inhibits [125I]hαCGRP binding (IC50: 7 nM), and stimulates cAMP accumulation (EC50: 0.56 nM) in the cells co-expressing mRAMP1 (mouse receptor-activity-modifying-protein 1) and rCRLR (rat calcitonin receptor-like receptor)[3].Calcitonin Gene Related Peptide (CGRP) II, rat TFA (rat-βCGRP, 0.01-100 nM) induces endothelium-independent relaxations in the coronary arteries from male and female Sprague-Dawley rats, with an IC50 value of 2.8 nM approximately[4]. | ||||||
