  1. The gastrointestinal effects of calcitonin and related peptides

    … the anti-ulcerogenic properties of the hormone calcitonin and some related peptides have been investigated. The hypocalcaemic actions and the actions on indomethacin-induced gastric erosions of calcitonin, icatacalcin and calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) were found to be very different. …

    ABSTRACT|Human-a-calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP) is a 37 amino acid residue neuropeptide produced from tissue-specific alternative splicing of the primary RNA transcript of the calcitonin gene. CGRP is widely distributed throughout the central and peripheral nervous systems and is involved …

The serum concentration of both procalcitonin and its related molecule CGRP have been documented to increase in humans with SIRS, yet no literature exists as to the production or role of CGRP in equine patients with SIRS. This study showed that equine CGRP was produced in detectable …

  13. Evaluation of radiolabelled hynic-salmon calcitonin analogues as imaging agents for multiple myeloma and characterisation of novel hynic derivatives as chelators for technetium

    Calcitonin is a peptide hormone produced by the C-cells of the thyroids. Calcitonin receptors (CTR) are expressed by osteoclasts in the normal bone and in many cancers such as multiple myeloma (MM), breast and prostate cancer. In this thesis we report on the synthesis and evaluation of Tc-99m …
