General description
Anti-CGRP, rabbit polyclonal, recognizes the α-CGRP in rat amygdala and spinal cord. It is validated for immunofluorescence, & for use with frozen, paraffin, and free-floating sections.
Rabbit polyclonal antibody supplied as undiluted serum. Recognizes the α-CGRP protein.
Recognizes the α-calcitonin gene related peptide in rat amygdala and spinal cord.

Preparation Note
Reconstitute the lyophilized antibody with 100 µl sterile distilled H₂O. Carefully reconstitute the entire contents of the vial; during shipment and handling portions of the lyophilized pellet may have become dislodged and may not be in the bottom of the vial. Following reconstitution, aliquot and freeze (-20°C). Stock solutions are stable for up to 6 months at -20°C. Dilute with sterile PBS or Tris buffer at dilutions no higher than 1:10. Avoid freeze/thaw cycles of solutions.
Analysis Note
Positive Control

Rat amygdala or spinal cord
Other Notes
Antibody specificity was examined in the rat amygdala and spinal cord. Staining is completely eliminated by pre-treatment of antibody with 10-5M rat α-CGRP and partially eliminated by preabsorption with rat β-CGRP. Preabsorption with calcitonin resulted in no loss of immunostaining. For staining paraffin sections, heat sections to 80°C in 40 mM sodium citrate buffer, pH 8.5. Antibody should be titrated for optimal results in individual systems.

The present study investigated the central connections of motor neurons innervating the thyroarytenoid laryngeal muscle that is active in swallowing, respiration and vocalization. In both intact and sympathectomized rats, the pseudorabies virus (PRV) was inoculated into the muscle. After initial

Although there are many candidates as molecular mechanotransducers, so far there has been no evidence for molecular specialization of visceral afferents. Here, we show that colonic afferents express a specific molecular transducer that underlies their specialized mechanosensory function: the transient

Chronic debilitating pruritus is a cardinal feature of atopic dermatitis (AD). Little is known about the underlying mechanisms. Antihistamines lack efficacy in treating itch in AD, suggesting the existence of histamine-independent itch pathways in AD. Transient receptor potential ankyrin 1
