Upregulated expression of GAP-43 mRNA and protein in anterior horn motoneurons of the spinal cord after brachial plexus injury.

Developmental localization of calcitonin gene-related peptide in dorsal sensory axons and ventral motor neurons of mouse cervical spinal cord

A new cervical nerve root avulsion model using a posterior extra-vertebral approach in rats

The extravertebral avulsion procedure developed in rats was easier and associated with less unexpected spinal cord damage, and would become a useful tool for the study of cervical nerve root avulsion injury.

Localization of Brain Natriuretic Peptide Immunoreactivity in Rat Spinal Cord

Results indicate that BNP is expressed in sensory and motor systems of the spinal cord, suggesting its involvement in several biological actions on sensory andMotor neurons via its binding to NP receptor-A (NPR-A) and/orNP receptor-B ( NPR-B) at the spinal Cord level.

Calcitonin gene-related peptide is a key factor in the homing of transplanted human MSCs to sites of spinal cord injury

It is demonstrated that calcitonin gene-related peptide (CGRP), a neural peptide synthesized in spinal cord, can dramatically aid the homing of human umbilical cord mesenchymal stem cells (HUMSCs) in spinal Cord-transected SCI rats.

Correlation between CGRP Levels and the Neuropathic and Inflammatory Component of Postoperative Pain.

A significant role of CGRP in reactive (neurogenic) inflammation is suggested after surgical removal of impacted mandibular third molars, as well as the factors that have influence upon the perception of pain.

Involvement of calcitonin gene-related peptide and CCL2 production in CD40-mediated behavioral hypersensitivity in a model of neuropathic pain.

Data suggest that CD40 contributes to the maintenance of behavioral hypersensitivity following peripheral nerve injury in part through two distinct pathways, the enhancement of CGRP expression and spinal cord CCL2 production.

Neuropathological Characteristics of Brachial Plexus Avulsion Injury With and Without Concomitant Spinal Cord Injury

Interestingly, in contrast to adult small animal models of BPAI, a degree of motor neuron survival was observed, even following severe injury in this neonatal model, which provides a clinically relevant platform for exploring the complex postavulsion neuropathological responses that may inform therapeutic strategies.

Effect of Calcitonin Gene-Related Peptide on the Neurogenesis of Rat Adipose-Derived Stem Cells In Vitro

ADSCs genetically modified with CGRP exhibit stronger potential for differentiation and neurogenesis in vitro, potentially reflecting the usefulness of ADSCs as seed cells in therapeutic strategies for spinal cord injury.
